Ah, Paris! 2012-07-05 Why are the quays along the Seine so romantic? Or is it just that young people have nowhere else to go? This shot shows the eastern tip of the Île Saint-Louis. Many thanks for the comments on yesterday's picture of gargoyles. As some people noted, there was a 'tad' of pp to bring out the outlines. I added a sketch layer, since the stones were mostly the same color.
Nighttime 2012-06-30 Another shot of the Eiffel Tower. Taken on the corner near my hotel. And yes, the young lady stood there taking a picture for the whole 30 seconds of the exposure.
Guess where I am! 2012-06-29 Actually I've been here all week, but sitting in meetings all day long. This shot was taken approx. midnight - isn't it wonderful that pairs are resting on the grass. The Eiffel Tower was actually sparkling - which can't be captured in a 30 second exposure. There are very few such iconic constructions in the world.
