Whenever I'm in a foreign city I'm always on the lookout for interesting graffiti.
The 'posh' areas of Paris, where the tourists usually go, are remarkably graffiti free, but venture e few metro stops away from the Seine and you enter a different, much more real world of local culture.
I spotted this rather beautiful sprayed roller door while wandering round the back streets of Montmartre, and I think it rivals most exhibits in the art galleries for impact.
It certainly cheered up an otherwise very grey street.
