First set of Paris photographs are now up

I had a wonderful walk around the Arc de Triumph this evening, just the thing that helped keep the jetlag at bay. I've organized them into a set on flickr, and I'll be adding more throughout the trip.

Twilight is one of the most beautiful times to photograph, colors just jump out as contrast is reduced, and the combination of warm tungsten lighting with the cool light from the sky brings out such interesting compositions. This one just looked timeless to me. I liked the composition and colors of this one, and you have to look at this one carefully, the woman is going over to an expensive fur shop to show her beau something she likes.

Enjoy. More later.
