There are a couple of nice shots in there - I think rather than quantity it might be better to edit them down a bit and keep just the quality ones for people to look at - Just a tad too many but still a nice series.

Some cool shots and I like the obscure shots, the things that people go by everyday and pay no mind to. I didn't see any comments on your shots or what you were going for, was the motion blur in some of the shots intentional? I'm sure it was in some, such as the Marilyn shot, but some of the graffiti shots I don't know if it was on purpose or by accident, would be nice to see your commentary added to help us better understand your intentions.

Paris is a city full of life, of lively people, of confrontation and of love. It's a cultural mashup with incredible texture.

Where are the Parisians? Where is the texture of life?

I agree with Dr.Confuser..."Where are the Parisians?"

I looked at these images when you first posted and didn't know what to say. The heart and soul of that city is really in it's people and they seem to be noticeably missing in your shots with the exception of four. I'll try and PM you some other thoughts, if you're interested.

Here are some of my Paris shots from a few years back. They're ok but not my best work. I was so scrambled and rushed while I was there that my shooting wasn't as relaxed as I would have wished. They're quite different from yours in terms of subject choice.
