With Her Head in the Clouds


Rainy days in Paris are to be expected and embraced.  La Tour had her head all up in the clouds my last day in Paris.  I think it becomes her!!!

    I love how this perspective makes the city of Paris disappear... It almost seems that you are shooting from low in a field

    The crown of mist suits La T quite well!

    Bisous,
    Genie

    Belle! Nice shot, I guess that sort of picture is easy to miss.

    I don't think people believe how tall it is if they haven't seen it.

    Oh my—she looks quite ethereal, doesn't she? (I JUST took a very similar shot of the Chrysler Building—quelle coincidence.)

    Alexa, like a gauzy chapeau!

    Ashbags,
    I was overwhelmed the first time I stood beneath her and looked up. She is far grander than the photographs

    Rob,
    I photograph her from all over Paris. :)

    I just knew it! I knew if I clicked on your bookmark I'd see the Eiffel Tower. Thanks for not disappointing!

    Starman,
    We ALL préfère le soleil, but realistically in Paris we have to find other ways to float our boats, or bateuaus or whatever! :)

    Suz,
    It's all about the ET and YOU!!!
