Le dame en or


The series of statues here overlooking la Tour Eiffel is lovely but this time, the golden light in the window caught my eye. The reflection was the bonus.

Palais de Chaillot

One of my favorite spots. The pic is beautyful and full of nostalgy, with those autumn golden lights.

The photo and the lady are really nice (but the windows could have been cleaner for an even better reflection)! :-)

I love those statues around the place Trocadero. I should do a photo study of them myself!

Both beautiful! Now I'm trying to figure out exactly where she is. Will have to have a hunt.
Happy Halloween to you!

A well composed image - as usual. How have I missed this statue when in Paris? Warm wishes.
