“An afternoon at the end of winter, Place de la Concorde. Before disappearing, the sun filters through the clouds and sensually outlines the curves of the parked cars. A fleeting effect, which needs to be captured on the spot. The Paris sky is - in the eye of this Parisian - one of the most beautiful and varied in the world, perhaps because of the relative proximity of the English Channel. But that doesn’t mean it is beautiful all the time. Furthermore we must never neglect special moments when they present themselves. Many of the images in my work are the result of dismissing so -called good reasons such as “I’ll do this some other time. I’m late, that’s enough for today” and worst of all, “So, what am I going to use that for?”~ Willy Ronis We are all so fortunate that Willy didn’t decide to go home early this day otherwise we would have been deprived of one of his greatest images. There is indeed something so magical about “The Paris Light”.This image has it all. Paris, The Eiffel Tower, the shapes and lines of the cars and of course the unique mood and ambience of this extraordinary city.
