Sacré Coeur (again and again!)


Someone (disclosure, her name is Heather!) lent me a camera with a "fish-eye" lens and I could not help but giving it a try... So here you go, one of my favorite places in Paris, taken from my favorite angle: the pavement! Cool isn't? I must say I love it, but I'm not sure I'm going to fall for one of these cameras, as I think I would be tempted to overuse it! Still... I love it ;-)

  13. The fish-eye definitely adds a little extra something to the famous angle. And I love the starburst streetlights.
    Great shot on lots of levels!

  15. Very pretty.

    I used to wonder whether the fish-eye lens would actually give any decent shot... but looking at this... its amazing!

  17. I love hanging out at the Sacre Coeur. Just sit on the steps watching the scene of Paris as the sky changes colour. We stayed in Montmatre during our visit to Paris and it's a brisk walk up to Sacre Coeur every evening just to enjoy the nice view of Paris. Thanks for bring back those lovely memories of Paris through your photos.
