Paris (1976-1984)

I arrived in France in 1976 for my Electrical Engineering thesis studies and I left Paris in 1984. Of course, in parallel, I continue my photo actvities in my spare time. Picturing Paris at that time was great. I liked very much the - often - gray sky which matched very well my TRI-X and my Olympus OM-2n. The most used lenses were the Zuikos 21/3.5, 24/2.8, 35/2, 50/1.8, 100/2.8 and the 135/2.8. I often printed the pictures with Ilford paper in a BW lab at the university Paris XI. Several photos here presented were obtained from film scanned with the Nikon CoolScan V. Others are photos taken with my Nikon D90 directly from the prints made in that period. The actual pictures were taken with my Olympus gear above described.
