Before I leave for Sweden (I will hopefully be back and able to post again December 13), here are some more night shots. Two from Place de la Concorde, one of the Champs Elysées and one of the roof of the Grand Palais (along the Champs Elysées). It was raining and I took the photos with my trembling hands… Anyhow.
See you (rather) soon!!
See you (rather) soon!!
so pretty!
ReplyDeleteKeshi.
City of Light!! Peter, you're the best... at least I can see Paris through your lens... and it's FOC! :P
ReplyDeletebelles photos de nuit sur la place de la concorde, bravo. J'aime beaucoup la composition de ta deuxième photo avec la Tour Eiffel et l'obélisque encadre par les lampadaires.
ReplyDeleteGreetings to your mother, hopefully she is doing well and you can enjoy also a little snow in Sweden!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! I love the decorations on Champs Elysees.
ReplyDeleteC'est vraiment beau Paris illuminé, en rentrant tu pourras nous montrer l'avenue Montaigne, les façades des grands couturiers sont très bien décorées certaines années.
ReplyDeleteQuel courage sous la pluie, tu ne ménages pas ton pauvre genou. Bon voyage. Prend la Suède dans tes bras pour moi.
Lovely images. The lights are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip. Sending lots of thoughts and prayers your way...
Paris, ville de lumières de Noël. Bon voyage, et ne mange pas trop de lussekattor.
ReplyDeleteFais bon voyage, à bientôt!
ReplyDeleteLa tour bien sûr se voit de partout. Et ce rapprochement de ces deux tours d'époques différentes est super
ReplyDeleteJe te fais noter qu'il y a des toilettes publiques mais payantes à ce bout du jardin des Tuileries
Et ds la jardin on peut se désaltérer, se rafraichir ce qui n'a pas été une nécessité pour toi
Tes mains tremblantes c'est pas la vieillesse mais le froid, dis moi ?
Déjà le genou (d'après Lyliane... Tes admiratrices vont avoir les yeux descillés)... Tu es tout de même pas aussi vieux que l'Obélix ?
Bon tour en Suède, veinard. Fais toi chouchouter par Mom' et toutes tes soeurs.
Ramène des bougies de la Ste Lucie, surtout !
I suppose your camera has image stabilization built in (IS) as these are very stable looking pictures to me. And the color is very good for being taken at night. I like them a lot.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff, Peter. Good wishes for the home trip.
ReplyDelete(Soon you can join the B&W club)
Välkommen till norden, Peter, hoppas du har en vit semester i Sverige.
ReplyDeletePrends bien soin de toi en Suède et profite bien de ta famille!
ReplyDeleteParis certainly is gorgeous at Christmastime. Great photos. I hope your hands weren't too cold when taking them. Enjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see that the painting stress is over! Beautiful night pictures; and not blurred...
ReplyDeleteI really like those night pictures. I took one or two when I was in Florida, just trying out the night settings on the camera. Not that my camera has many settings, it's really a point-and-shoot, but it takes nice pics.
ReplyDeleteHave a good trip to Sweden , give your "mor" a hug.
Hi peter,
ReplyDeleteWonderfull nightshots this are!!! This is the Paris I remeber, how are you doing? Hvae a good trip to Sweden :)
En voyant tes photos je me suis rappelée de ces courses, les trottoirs illuminés, les klaxons des voitures, le monde dans le métro Saint Lazare.....noel ; une période un peu folle pleine d'achats compulsifs...

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.

ReplyDeleteHope you have a good time with your fmly in Sweden.Take care peter.

ReplyDeleteEnjoy and have a great week!
I really like the first one - beautiful tomes and colours for a night shot.
ReplyDeleteZurich Daily Photo
Sorry about the spam link, but Bloggers recent changes leave me no other option
My favorite is the first one too, although the Champs Elysées are pretty spectacular, as always.
ReplyDeleteChristmas lights in Avignon too,along with chapter 2 of my crime witness's adventures. Comme on over !
The shadowy tone gives the photos a subdued effect. Nice!
ReplyDeleteHey Peter, beautiful shots. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great trip !
