Paris : from my eyes

Let me share my story through the pictures I have taken in Paris...

Walking along the River Seine, I had to take this beautiful picture of the Eiffel Tower.

1. What do I love best in Paris? The sky, the constantly changing sky. It has character. It has beautiful colors. The wind, when it blows, creates different images in the heavens.

Imagine yourself getting married in Paris, at the garden in front of the Eiffel Tower!

This is what the happy couple is doing on a Sunday afternoon. Very romantic!

Atop the Bateau Mouche, I had an hour-long tour along the river Seine. Very important, since I got to see all the magnificent structures. A very good and sunny day it was, unexpected many said, but I know it was expressly given to me by God.

I saw many people dotting the river side... just plain lying down and soaking the heat of the sun. It was supposed to be dark and raining. Instead I got the gift of a glorious day... just right for a tour.

One of the impressive bridges along Seine. The statue, I was told, is meant to indicate the water level in the river. Notice the wooden crates under the bridge? Sorry to dispel the euphoric image of the city of lights but Paris also has its share of problems : the SDFs or sans domicile fixe... the homeless.

In front of the Opera, while waiting for a friend, I couldn't resist. I had to take a picture of the city of lights. Just the right site for lovers to walk, while holding hands.

I followed my former teacher's advice. I went up the Montparnasse Tower and had a wonderful 360 degrees view of the city. At 7:00 in the evening, as the sun began to set, I appreciated the beauty of man's creative handiwork basked with the divine light from God's creation.
