If it was not difficult enough to take photos of a fountain and get no water on the lens, I was raining while I was taking this shots. But I managed to get a shot without any drops on the lens. That’s because I used the 24-70 from canon, and if you ever seen that lens, you know that it has a giant lens hood. It just perfect for when it rains :)

One way to compose a subject in a photo, is to frame it. That does not mean adding a frame around the photo, but using parts of surrounding nature or architecture to create a frame around the subject, and so giving it more importance in the photos. And that is what I did here.

It’s funny that this is a photo. It looks more like something done in Photoshop in few minutes :). It’s just so abstract. I actually wanted a more wider composition, showing this colorful pillar in Paris more in its surrounding, but right after I took this shots, it started raining again. So this was the shot I got :)

I just love this view. When I was planing my trip to Paris, the Tour Montparnasse and the Tour Eiffel were the only two spots I knew I have to visit. All others were optional

And I returned here each evening when I was in Paris, as my hotel was right next to it :). But as usually, this is the place I have the least photos from. It’s a funny thing, but taking photos of something that is close is always harder than taking photos of something far away. You just go by day after day, and each time you tell yourself, this is close, I can go here anytime. But in the end, you never find time for it. It was same with this photo. The only reason I was there to take it, is because it was raining in the city, and I was on my way to the hotel much earlier than I planed.
