Paris ~ Part Deux
See, my French is getting better already. Oui? And thanks to a couple iPhone apps and Google tranlator, dinners are becoming less and less of a surprise each night, which to a degree is also a little less fun. My schedule's been prety busy up until now, so I haven't had too much time to roam the city with a camera, just an occasional stroll in the immediate neighborhood surrounding my hotel in central Paris. BTW, if you're ever in Paris and looking for a recommendation for a small, quaint hotel close to lots of stuff in the city, check out Hotel Sèvres Saint Germain. Kylie's plane should be landing any moment now, and we've got the next two and a half days to explore the city, so I look forward to capturing some images with my "appareil photo" (camera). For now, here's a few from my walks within a few blocks of the hotel. The images may look a little over-sharpened... I tend to get lazy and not zoom in as much as I should while editing on a smaller laptop screen when traveling, so sometimes my sharpening gets a little ghetto. |
This next image has a fair amount of noise in it, but it I liked the feel of it anyway. It was taken at ISO 4000 at f/2.8 for 1/100th of a second, handheld, for any photographer geekers who might be wondering. |
