Bassin de la Villette is a large water area in Paris, built in 1808.
It's used by boats carrying peoples or goods and by tourists who love to have a walk or drink on the banks.

Cité des sciences is another famous place in Paris. It's main goal is to spread scientific and technical informations to the public.
The big ball you can see on the picture is named géode and is a very special cinema where you can see some films on a 1000 square meters hemispherical screen.

Another image from our recent visit to Paris.

This day there was just one lift working and i guess some people had to wait a very long time ... This image was done in the very late afternoon but a few hours before, the queue was really longer.
Personally, we choose the scale. Waiting time was very short, the view is amazing and that's really not a hard climb.

Paris, Montparnasse and Military School from Eiffel Tower

 

I'm just back from Paris.
I had to spend a few days in the big city to meet some clients. It was not really a photographic trip but i had some free time and a camera ...

This image was done from the Eiffel tower and shows the Montparnasse tower which is one of the highest building of Paris (it was the highest until last year). In the foreground you can also see the famous Military School which is more than 250 years old.
