Bon Fête de Nationale!


14 juillet, 2009 I stood on a bridge with my friend Peter Olson and took this shot ( a LOT of shots).  I think this evening must take the "MY BEST PARIS MOMENT" award for all time.  Merci Peter for planning this so that I could share this wonderful event with you and all of Paris from the perfect vantage point!

Triple Golly and quadruple Wow V. This is a fantastic photograph. You must have felt very special to be at the Eiffel Tower on 14 July to witness such a spectacle and you must be very proud of your prize, this photograph. Bravo.

Great picture. I was there in 2011 but was too many bridges away to get pictures like that. I was hanging on a light post in the middle of a bridge and my pictures look like I was 20 miles away.
