For tourists, Paris is the city of lights, city of love, but many people living in the city or in its suburbs do not see its beauty. I realized this recently, after we had moved outside of Paris to a larger, more affordable flat.
For years, I have photographed Paris in every situation: early morning, late night, in the heat of August or under the snow, from the bustling Grands Boulevards district to the large, quiet graveyards. I especially like Paris in late Spring and Summer, and warm evenings with their golden light.
I also like taking pictures of Paris at night. Its monuments and most interesting buildings are very nicely lit and walking along the Seine river on a warm Summer Saturday evening, among tourists and other people, all happy to be there is a sheer delight. I also run a website proposing Paris photo tours to share this with visitors.
