Description
A golden afternoon on the River Seine with the fabulous Louvre in the background, how can anything be more Parisian?
I had more than my share of beautiful days in Paris, but this one day, the quality of the light was just fantastic. It meant for a long walk along the historic Seine, taking in all the beautiful architecture on the river side. In fact, this marks the beginning of a UNESCO designated World Heritage site that stretches from the Louvre to the Eiffel Tower down river. So the word historic is not used lightly describing this scene!
I never made it on any of those tour boats for a Seine cruise, but it sure looked like a fun way to see the city. With my short time table, though, I wanted to walk, and to really soak up the sun and photograph one of the most picturesque cities I've seen.
Ah, Paris on a sunny afternoon...
This photo deserved a golden treatment, which I've been told by several reminds them of an old oil painting, and I can see the comparison.
