Didn't realize Serge had died ...  Je t'aime, moi non plus
Poupee de cire, poupee de son.  Anyway Alt1 is quite amazing
that with so many people in the frame, only one face is blocked.
Something was happening to the right side of the frame that
caught everyone's attention.  Caption is probably incorrect (
25mm ASPH Summicron ?).  The mood is also more festive 
that the Main, with people smiling, laughing, together with
the saxophonist, and the heart shaped dahlia display.
The Main has that man staring at you; very strong.  Is the man
on the right foreground the accordionnist ?
Marionnaud makes me think of these dancers as marionnettes.
Thanks for another installment from the Paris shoebox.
