Gina -- Merci
Brittany and Randy -- Many thanks. I think that there are lucky moments that remind you why you love a city.
The light is just stunning. Nice!
and all i can say is wow too --- such a powerful image, genie - the buildings gleam like gold!!
"Wow" pretty much says it all. Shots like this are why you never go anywhere without your camera, right?
Another "wow" from me! ;)
I like the contrast between light and dark.
And I echo it again WOW! I really love the perspective of your shot. The lighting is perfect! What a beautiful city. The song may say I love Paris in springtime, but I say I love Paris anytime!
Wow indeed. I have always said the light in Paris exists nowhere else.
T -- I think that it almost looks like an ancient city in the distance.
Amanda -- Merci, I hope you are enjoying your travels
Alexa -- I am without my camera right now and have decided to stick my little underwater camera in my bag when I can't take the SLR. Did you see that moon crescent (sliver)at dusk tonight?
London Caller -- Thank you for your visit. You have some amazing landscapes too.
JM -- Merci
Ebie -- I agree with you. Paris anytime!!
Parisian -- I was fortunate with this shot, but the light in Paris is amazing.
...you found the Golden City! Really amazing, and the affect of the clouds with the light blue sky peaking through certainly lends a certain drama to the whole scene.
I agree with Shell Sheree...I just love it when the sun breaks through and you get those lovely contrast shots! We LIVE for those moments, n'est-ce pas?
