"Paris" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Three Muses challenge was "Flying."

I started with the idea of wanting to use a Hot Air Balloon. Then I decided to add a couple who were kissing, which led to a Paris based theme, for the City of Love. Paris is also the City of Light (La Ville Lumière), and the location of the historic Paris Catacombs, etc.

I will refrain from stating what I think of the cowards who recently attacked civilians in Paris.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.16 (the latest version, to which I just upgraded).

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)
