Grand Prix - What's wrong?


Alright, not the greatest photo, I agree, but there is something wrong in this first photo.

We are in Monaco, yet the policeman is French. The smaller photograph shows you a Monaco policeman.

The French policeman told me he (and others) had been called in to help during Grand Prix week. I think he was enjoying himself on the streets of Monaco.

I would understand why help would be called in, considering the times in which we live...
Jilly, your photos are magnificent and seem to capture the essence of your environs beautifully. Of course, it helps you to live in this place, but you are a master photographer. Makes me want to visit so much!

I never would have known the difference till you told us.

I'm sure he's enjoying himself for two reasons: all the pretty girls in Monaco, and he's probably working for overtime pay:)

Clueless is right, he looks discreet an pleased of what he sees. The street is full of things to see and admire, as the tower or castle in the background. A great capture! Have a wonderful week.

Toujours est il que les policiers de Monaco sont un exemple de courtoisie et de gentillesse.
Nous avons passé une journée la semaine juste avant le grand prix et avons remarqué que le relationnel avec ces gardiens de l'ordre n'avait rien de commun avec leurs homologues Français. Il est vrai que la population de la région n'est pas celle d'un quartier avec 20% de chômeurs...mais quand même....
