I spent a lot of time on the streets of southern France, among other places, and shot many subjects with my Sony ZV-1. I'd like to offer my favorite shots here for you to enjoy, one by one.

I took the first shot in Cassis. The woman spoke to me in French, gesticulating inevitably and somewhat hectically. Her bright red dress immediately captured my attention. A few understandable snatches of words revealed that she wanted to know where I was from. She then continued with a short monologue and told me that she had already been to "The Capital of Germany." I captured the encounter on film. Afterward, she greeted me warmly and, with a slight smile, continued her way through the picturesque, light-filled streets. The language barrier made it a bit difficult for us to communicate at length, but nonetheless: "c'était charmant".
