Wandering through the streets of old Marseille
Those photos were taken in Le Panier, a genuine district of the city of Marseille which gathers poors and riches, immigrants and locals. I was struck by the fact that those scenes almost look like as if they were directed or people were posing. But it's just the beauty of the instant. A moment one has to be all set to capture, with the finger ready to trigger. A moment that will not look the same ever again. Moments that add up to tell a story.
