Paris 17ème Arrond; Visiting this discreet Arrondissement of Paris (June 2017)

Walking on Paris streets is better than whatever you can do in this city. For me, at least. Lately, I'm doing it by 'arrondissements'. This time, June 2017, I chose the 17ème which is less visited by tourists in this summertime period. One may get a more realistic impression of how the Parisien regular life is. Also, I was not very familiar with this area and I would like to know it better.
The 17ème has a border, at the west side, with the the 16ème, a fancy area (close the Arc du Triomphe and Champs Elysées Avenue). Walking towards east one gets to the east border, at the the 18ème Arrondissemnet, a very popular one. Then, it is, in some way, a 'transition' area. Interesting to see how it changes between these limits.
During my limited time there, I walked, mainly, on the Avenue de Wagram, Boulevard Pereire, Rue Cardinet, Avenue de Clichy, Boulevard de Batignolles and Boulevard de Courcelle, along the Place Monceau.
For photograph it, I used my Olympus E-M1, the Zuiko 14-150mm and, in few occasions, the small fish-eye 9mm.
