Like every year around the 10th of June, Paris had its diner en blanc (white dinner Party). And like every year I went there to take a photo (several actually!). I posted this one because it allows you to see the amount of people that were there (obviously at the Louvre!) - even though this year the bad weather (it rained all day and it was pretty cold) probably discouraged a lot of guests. I get more and more message asking me "how to attend", but like I already explained, you have to know someone, who knows someone, who knows someone... and I don't have contacts anymore!

ReplyDeleteTu étais à Paris ?
DeleteAnd every year I think it is really cool!
ReplyDeleteIn Torino, next 22 of June. Where? ... You have to know someone, who knows someone, who knows someone...
ReplyDeleteSame principle in Torino then! But at least you know the date!
DeleteIt's gorgeous! The setting, the view, it's just beautiful. :) Hope you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteI did not stay really. I have done it so many times, now I had it! I just went there to take photos for PDP!
DeleteBeautiful shot, magnificent setting, lots going on, I love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot! Looks like the weather was cooperating at this point, anyway. (Why do I see a couple of guys in black jackets?)
ReplyDeleteIt was cold and it rained all day yesterday! there were lucky the sky cleared up in the evening, let me tell you.
DeleteThose two guys didn't get the memo.
DeleteWow Eric, this is really a fantastic shot! Were you up on a ladder or use a crane? Seriously, this came out fantastic (as did the sun finally!).
ReplyDeleteNo crane Michael (although I have one!!) Just a ledge...
DeleteGreat shot Eric. Too bad we didn't cross paths yesterday evening. I took some photos as well (probably more than I should have). They're accessible from the Paris-Sharing blog.

Hey Carsten,
DeleteYou have some stunning photos there - and you had the patience to stay long enough to get night shots, which I did not... Great event isn't it?
Such amazing light in this shot! Fun to see your photos of this event again.
ReplyDeleteIt seems to me that if you go far enough up the "know somebody" chain there must be someone with a good deal of power, or you wouldn't be able to invite your "army" of people onto the grounds of places like the Louvre!
ReplyDeleteSorry you had to ban anonymous comments, Eric, but I think it will help.
Nice one.Lift India
ReplyDeleteplease, send more photos. thpaw
