Notre Dame Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Hello ,
having deferred my summer holidays of one month , I have a little time to come to visit you.
Everyone with recognized the place, therefore I will not last for ever to once again tell the history of the heart of Paris, I prefer to leave you these some sentences which follows.

It arrives to me, sometimes, especially in winters because the day rises later, to raise me early Sunday morning, and to take my photo implements to go to stroll on the quays of the Seine between Notre Dame and La Concorde.
It is one pleasant moment, or circulation is still rare, the air vivifying and is disencumbered of the impurities of town pollution, and one crosses the rare courageous ones who face the morning cold to make them jogging.

At these hours when the day and the night meet, before the sun show its first rays, urban lighting mixes its colors with the first gleams of the day, and it is the moment that I have chooses for seizing this scene and this environment.

Have a good Day, Dino

Excellent photo, nice POV and colors. Perfect exposure, i don't know it if was a windy day or the water has a current, because I'm sure if the water was still you would it got some great reflections.
Good job

Hi Armandino

Paris at the break of dawn. Very good perspective shot, perfect lighting without trace of any overexposure. The flow of the river seemed like silk...fantastic reflection. Very impressive take on this one. Congrats.

Hi Armandino,

Well seen and well shot. Crisp and detailed shot. Like the POV especially the way the walls are leading into the frame. Good use of the exposure. Good colours and contrast.

Cheers,

Salut Armandino! Wow this truly beautiful, and so right you are with your comment, nothing more special than early Sunday mornings in Paris when the town is still sleepy and calm. I love the soft move of the river with the light reflecting in the water. Excellent work, very special indeed. Have a great afternoon, Barbara.

Bonsoir Armandino,
Somptueuse composition- Tu as eu raison de te lever de bonne heure, c'est une lumière magique que tu as capturée là. Un subtile mélange de lumière naturelle et lumière artificielle. La prise de vue est top. Et le fait d'être là très tôt, fait qu'il n'y a pas de "parasite" sur ta photo, ce qui lui donne une certaine douceur et calme -je dirai même plus, une certaine pureté - c'est très beau -
bonne soirée -
daniel

Bonjour Armandino.
Une belle image de Paris, avec un temps de pose et un équilibre des couleurs, bien maîtrisés. L'angle de prise de vue et bien choisi et la masse sombre de notre Dame équilibre bien l'ensemble.
Bonne journée.
Pierre.

Hello ,
a nice longer exposure of the Notre Dame church, I also like the composition with the diagonal made by the Seine.
Good timing at blue hour.

Bonjour Dino,

J'aime beaucoup des 2 photos sur Notre Dame mais j'ai choisi celle-là car l'éclairage me plait plus , les couleurs plus douces.Belle composition.

Bonne soirée

superbe
