French sketching tour

Paris. View of the Louvre museum and Arc de Triumph in Tuilerie Garden. I was sitting under the trees and watching dozens of tourists crossing the square. But only pigeons were calm enought to stay there as locals.
Paris. Notre Dame view from the river. One of my favorite spot to watch Cathedral - almost no people around, nice view and perfect spot to have a lunch break with some street food from around the corner.
Paris. Boulevard Saint Germain. This view I sketched from the cafe terrace. There were some people who came to take a coffe or lunch and I tried to capture some strangers across the street.
