Hello to all.
 
Bièvres, south of Paris is reknowned for its photographic museum as it has been 
the place for the first French photographers (so it is said). Every year in 
June is a giant open air market with participants from all over Europe, even 
Russians.
 
As I roamed in a basket to find a few things, the seller just put me a glass in 
hand saying "beer from Colognes, have one":

Indeed, that's a huge barrel for a glass :)
 
Alternate (both are from PnS Canon, sorry):

Plenty of Leica R (R3,R4) bodies but few lenses., Plenty of M bodies/lenses 
too. But the prices are not too interesting. I managed to come across my well 
known Asian sellers in Paris, two old gentlemen of Viet Nam/Cambodge, very 
peculiar characters. I heard them, they bargain to the last bit in this market 
and often sell at high price in their shop :)
 
Thanks for looking.---------------------------------Xavier F. BILLE
