And a man was walking over the roof tops...

Paris - France

The view from my window is an empty stage.
Big and rather dilapidated chimneys are like side wings.
Suddenly the only character enters the stage from the right and crosses all my visual field, walking softly on the edge of the roof.
The sky is heavy and dark, it will rain soon.
He doesn’t look in any hurry, he feels at ease as if he was on a sidewalk.
He disappears on the left, after stopping for a while, looking at me and smiling.

Parkour?

Intriguing and lovely image. Perhaps he was going to adjust his aerial? Strange walls behind him with great detail of the textures.

Cool. I am listening! Can you tell me more? What happened when he smiled? Did you smile back? So many questions, so little time.

a so good images, textured wall, as feelings..
your words enhance the mood, make me think about him, about his story..

Un bon exercice d'équilibre , que pratique imperturbablement mon "little guy", mais auquel je ne peux malheureusement pas me risquer
