Paris - More beauty than I could bear

Welcome to the 999th Paris Thread.
Here are the impressions from my 7 Day trip to Paris in August 2009.
Enjoy the unreached beauteousness of this city. Please note: I focussed more on the architecture than on Street life, what a pity


Imagine there would be older cars and no McDonnals... Beauty that never changes(view from the Pantheon to Jardin de Luxembourg)

I really envy him. I only had seconds, he maybe a whole life for gathering impressions of this great city

Great photos with good settings - better than typical happy snaps you might see.

Central Paris looks so interesting from above. I mean, it's not high-rise yet it looks so dense when viewed from that way, with all the buildings put together.

Your pictures are far more beautiful than my poor eyes could bear... Fantastic stuff!
Are you a profesional photographer or just a briliant amateur?
