Oh my poor feet !

Place du Palais, Avignon
The street parade takes its toll on a performer.
La parade du Off ne va pas sans souffrances.
Crumpled feet and moan of pain... ouch it hurts !
Pieds recroquevillés et grimace de douleur ... oh que ça fait mal !
But her partner in crime wearing boots is still laughing and enjoys posing for me !
Mais sa commère en godillots rit encore et se fait une joie de poser pour moi !

I trust the woman with the boots is wearing something on her legs and that her legs are not covered with a tatoo.

La première porte sur ses épaules toute la fatigue du monde! Envie de la prendre dans ses bras et lui dire doucement: ça va aller, ça va passer...

Chri, elle était toute mignonne. Quand elle m'a vu la photographier elle a encore trouvé la force de poser avec un sourire, très belle.

Oh how I love that first shot. So candid. Not to mention all the great technical photographic attributes of which I know next to nothing but can appreciate when I see. But it's really about the capturing of that unguarded moment that does it for me. It's so honest and human. The exprience is definitely something I can relate to (I always carry bandaids in my bag).

Tout le monde vous le dira :
« Le festival d'Avignon, c'est...
le pied ! »

Pour parader il faut être bien chaussé.
Godillots on
Shoes off.
Belle pose !
J'aime le com de Bichel.

Bonjour! Nathalie...
Ouch!...is the correct word to use because I can almost feel her (The performer in the first photograph) "pain" too!
Nice captures (photographs) of both performers...Merci, for sharing!

Oh my, I feel for the first lady. That is always my problem when I go to Paris. The walking eventually takes its toll on my tootsies!!!
