Paris, Breakfast

Breakfast in Paris

I traveled for many years for work and always had some sort of camera along. During a one year period I decided to photograph my "days on the road" with the working title of 'Room Service'. I made images out my window, flowers on room service trays and whatever else crossed my lens.

This image was in the lobby of the George V Hotel in Paris.....

After many years I am finally getting around to that shoebox of film to see what's inside.....is it like a box of chocolates? Feels like a sequence might be on the horizon.......

'As soon as your're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
'Til the pain is so big you feel nothing at all'........John Lennon

I have avoided this image for about 20 years. I see it in my lightroom catalog from time to time but have never thought to put it out. On some level this image has always represented a sort of isolation and loneliness.

I do remember having to wear tall waders while standing in the freezing water with a wooden tripod a 4x5 camera and film holders in a backpack. Must have been in the water about 30 minutes before I finally got the shot.  Those were the days my friend - those were the days.....
