They're nice, but there's so much culture in France... look in front of you instead of just at your feet.

Comepltly agree. France is one of the greatest spots for street photography and candid portraiture. Tbh going over there and taking pictures of flowers the whole time seems kind of silly.

Walk into the nearby Boutisseire. I bet you can find atleast one great candid shot whether it be a baker flipping bread around or a child running around the store in carlessness.

no offence but thats so generic sure we have great culture and all but I mean we dont all eat croissent in the morning and I never said I wasnt going to take more pictures. Im stuck in france indefinetly so im sure to take pictures like that. Also my trip so far was spent in the middle of no where it was beautiful but it had nothing.

I'm sorry you took my acknowledgement of the french boutissiere the wrong way. I was trying to relate to you by using my french 1 vocabulary.

If you ask for CnC then try to be a bit more understanding about it when it's given to you. However if you disregaurd it like that people will be more hesititant to give u some.

I'm not saying you can't ever shoot flowers. What I was saying is you can do that anywhere. Why not take france for it's culture and try to get some shots of the landscape or something. And if your gonna be there for awhile, then go into paris with your mom for a day, Watch out for pick-pocketers and have a blast. If you're still stuck on flowers, i reccomend Versailles.

France is one of the most well known places for photography, it's practically legendary. Daguerre and Neipce' shot there while developing the first types of chemical printing. I have a hard time believing that in france the most interesting thing you can find is flowers.
That's all i was trying to say. Take this with a grain of salt and maybe keep it in mind next time you are shooting.
