Sunset over Paris Plage.

Yesterday it practically rained all day, so there was not a lot of people on the beaches of Paris plage, the "fake beaches" that the Paris town hall installs every year on the Seine banks. But last evening, after the clouds were gone, I decided to take a walk along the embankment and take advantage of the stunning sunset. It was just perfect and very cool...

  1. Ah, yes, the fake beaches. Capturing it like this makes for a dramatic image.

  2. Beautiful photo specially after a rainy day. After the rain, the sun.... A good idea.

  3. It's easier to make sand castles when the sand is damp.

  4. It's always nice to see the families who can't afford to go on vacation enjoy these "fake beaches".

  5. Wow, looks like a really nice evening. Petrea expressed the first thought that came to my mind: wet sand makes better castles. -Jeff

  6. By the way, I like how I can post without the need to open up FB as well. Even though it says 'Anonymous', you know who I am. Bwaaa ha ha ha haaaa! -Jeff

  7. You've really captured something special here, Eric! I can practically feel the sand beneath my feet and smell the sunscreen. Boy, summer went pretty quickly this year! I'm not complaining, however - I can't wait for fall!

  8. Great shot! Even in wet sand, I would have walked barefoot. Did you—or is that dangerous?

    1. I don't know whether it is me... but between 'fake beaches' and 'wet sand', ahem, isn't there anything slightly hot in the comment box today ? ;) Maybe it is me ...! :s

  9. Lovely... I can't wait to get my feet in some sand again this week. (Finally having summer here!) Love the sunset!
