Place Vendôme ready for Christmas


Several of you have asked me for some Paris Christmas decoration photos, so let me start with this one, that I just shot a couple of hours ago on Place Vendôme (which I already shot from further away here). They scattered several candlesticks throughout the place and installed special projectors to enlighten the column in the middle. Really nice.

    Oh mon Dieu, Eric - this is one of your finest!! I love the giant candlestick chandelier and how it illuminates the figure at the top! My last trip to Paris, I stayed at Le Lotti and had a spectacular view of this monument, however this one takes the cake! Merci.

    When I click on the photo, it looks like the statue is being reflected onto the low cloud ceiling. Really a great effect!

    Oh yes, it's a great effect - well spotted Michael! I have a photo on my blog which combines Christmas lights with gorgeous George at the moment, which is a funny link between this photo and the one here which caused so many comments! Still can't say I'm a fan (of the ads, the coffee's ok), and I still haven't bought the coffee maker, although my girlfriend's desperate for one for Christmas... the George Effect..?!

    Ah, elegantly festive! The shadow of the statue on the cloud cover is wonderful,

    Paris is beautiful any time of the day...but lit at night it is extremely so. Nice capture, Eric!
