Notre Dame, Paris

The beautiful and remarkable Notre Dame Cathedral is an amazing edifice. It rises out of its surrounding like few buildings can. I was truly impressed by its power.

Sections of a City, Paris

While the Moulin Rouge is a less dignified landmark than most in Paris it attracts no less attention. It is set in a very interesting, and devious section of the city.

This is the newest addition to the Louvre. The pyramid was added in 1989, and it is marked by some as a beautiful juxtaposition of old and new. However, not all share this same enlightened view of the structure. I will leave it up to you to take a view of your own.

The Catacombs in Paris

I thought this shot was a particularly interesting shot as it clearly shows the lines that are formed in the skull when the skull's bone plates fuse together. I have always had a bit of a morbid fascination with the pattern of the lines created by the fusion.

This shows the true lighting of the situation. It is very dark and these shots are taken at 800 ISO, at about 1/6th of second hand held, so you can only imagine how dark it truly is.

This was taken in the catacombs of Paris. When visiting the catacombs one is astounded by the shear number of bones and how many of them have had to be moved several times to there present day resting place. It is a must see when in Paris.
