Abbesses metro, a photo from Ile-de-France, North

Photographer's Note

This is the entrance of a famous metro station in paris named "Abbesses" ... this is the nearest metro station from the sacré coeur monument.
The metro station is about 100 meters under and when you choose to go there by feet (you can opt for lifts ;) ) you will see those graffitis everywhere !

Good light, bright colours and excellent perspective, given by the stairs going round and down.
Well done, a good shot!

Strong composition here Sebastien. The curving line of the stairway naturally leads the eye and makes the viewer curious as to what's round the bend. The bright colours of the graffitied walls add real vibrancy.
Good work.

A whole world itself or apart and in its own way beautiful. Well seen.

Sebastien,
Paris has always been a colorful city of the world, and in your photo it proves that a fact.

Bonsoir Sebastien
I did not know by the universe coloured of the Abbesses station as of his entry. Framing plunges us in the graffes, less tristounet that stations BHV or FNAC. Good idea of subject!
Cordially
