MyPictureSunday #10 - Dinner in Paris

in #photography7 years ago

Welcome my dear Steemian friends to another episode of MyPictureSunday!

On Friday I decided to have a short city trip to Paris. I finally wanted to go out and play around with my camera. A fellow Steemian joined me on my journey and so @vladikras and I flew over to Paris!

For todays post I wanted to capture something quite known. The challenge this time was to stay at the same place and try to capture as many different shots as possible.

Walking through Paris is really exhausting since it's a huge city! Sure, there is the metro system and busses but when I am in another city I try to see as much as I can. I will tell you more about the metros in tomorrows TimTravels post!







The Louvre, probably the most famous and largest museum on earth. From Antonio Canova's Psyche Revived by Cupid's Kiss to Mona Lisa and more you will find anything here.
Unfortunately the queue was very long and I had not much time so that I only took pictures from the outside.





After two hours of walking and without having proper breakfast I become very quickly hungry. I saw there is a fancy restaurant right in the area of the Louvre so I couldn't resist and gave it a try. I assure you will have one of the best views you can have while eating.
I started with springrolles as appetizer followed by some spicy penne. They serve the whole with some fresh bread and butter! Since it was a hot day I needed some refreshment and had a fruity grapefruit juice with sparking water.
I enjoyed my stay and let the daily thought disappear.
Look for yourself, I think it was worth it!







After I've finished my photo session I decided to make a little walk in one of the many parks Paris has to offer. Here people just hang out, enjoy the sun, meet and greet or just have some lunch.








Want to see more of Paris? Then don't miss tomorrows TimTravels post! I will show you the most known and beautiful places of Paris through my lens.



Steem on my friends! The winners for the last MyPictureDay contest will be announced tomorrow together with the new challenge!_

Yours
Tim

I love this post, your pictures are great, and is exactly what i need to do more of, in the midst of lonelyness and suffering from anxiety, your collaboration with other steemians and creative adventure, gives me so much hope and positivity for the the steemit platform and inpsires me in my own life, thankyou, I will be paying attention to further work :)

The Steemit community has been a great source of inspiration for all the bloggers out there. Steem on!

Permit me to call you a god of photography. Seeing the beautiful photographs is equivalent to traveling with you. I hope to visit Paris someday but I'll try to take proper breakfast before going for a long walk

Just showing a photographer friend around Steemit, and stumbled on this post. Beautiful pictures, man. I can feel the warmth of the day and stuff. The light is awesome for all the statues and sculptures. :D
