Cloudy Paris


So this is definitely November and it shows! The Eiffel Tower was in the clouds last evening when I returned from a meeting at Boulogne Billancourt (in the close suburbs of Paris). I took this photo from the lovely Passerelle Debilly that you may remember because of this love story... We're expecting more cloudy weather this weekend and a drastic drop in temperature next week!

  3. Very nice, very nice. Er, I mean tres belle, tres belle. (It wouldn't be nice to say it's 'Nice' in Paris.)

  4. I've been enjoying your photos for a long time. A couple of years? Even though I rarely have time to comment, please know that I appreciate your images every day.

    This one is my favorite. The accent lights on the bridge, its structure curving across the foreground creating a frame within the frame, the lit Eiffel tower disappearing into the mist: merveilleux!

  5. This photo looks otherworldly. It is GORGEOUS! This is a unique view/angle that is new to me. However, I do recall the proposal photo; that story/photo is one of my favorites at PDP!

  6. Wow, beautiful composition!
    November is frequentable, but only by night. Photogenic by night...

    Each time I pass by this Passerelle, I do remember your Manu and Smitha previous shot, Eric!

    Now, I will think of that new one and enjoy the fabulous scenery there. Each time that capsizes me. Love it.

  10. Well, what can I say? You make me see this city where we both live, under a different light.
    Merci!
    I needed to catch the best out of the ville(somethimes it's not so easy, here).
    See you soon

  11. Excellent photo Eric, and a charming love story, which I hadn't seen before - very special. Now we really need to know if she said 'Yes!' or if she wasn't feeling at all romantic because of that pervy photographer at the end of the bridge who kept spoiling their intimate moment ;-)
