Can't remember the name of the shop, but there's a superb photo bookshop in
Rue St Sulpice just north of the Palais de Luxembourg - it may be one of the
ones you mention, as I say I can't remember its name.

Oliver,

Let me add a spot or two to the list of Paris photo ops...

- - Père Lachaise cemetery, for people watching (alive and dead)
- - Ile Saint-Louis and Ile de la Cité, for people (okay, tourists), views of
the Seine
- - Monmartre, for the atmosphere
- - Barbès, for same
- - Canal St Martin, also for the atmosphere (and for Salgado's studio, which
is located near-by - never tried to visit, but who knows...)

For photo books, try:

- - La Maison européenne de la photographie
- - La Chambre claire
- - La Hune
- - Centre Pompidou bookstore

Report back on your trip and let us know how it went.

Bon voyage.

Guy
