Tom

Amazing pics! Loved the fountains. Makes me even more eager to get there.

Thanks for sharing. :)

Lovely!!!

Thank you, Tom

That is amazing. Wow. I was tranported away from the office for a few minutes. I'd like to say which was my favorite, but there were so many. Merci!

OMG - the long picture of the fountain Marie de Médicis in the Jardin du Luxembourg is my absolute favorite and is my new desktop photo. I am sure I should be sending you a royalty.

HOW did you get the colors to come out that way??? It just doesn't seem like it could have been that perfect. I have it centered with a maroon border and I just want to hang my monitor on the wall like a picture.

Thanks you for giving me so much pleasure today - it's my birthday, too!:)

Thank you for posting the photos, Tom! The fall colors were just beautiful!

Beautiful!

We are heading to Paris in April. Our traveling companions are coming over for dinner tonight. I will be sure to show them these photos. They are truly outstanding!

Thanks so much for taking the time to post all your pictures. I really enjoyed each of them.

Tom, you mentioned flying nonstop from SEA to CDG - I've been looking at different sites and cannot find a nonstop. Did you book directly through AF/Delta? BTW your pics are fantastic

What beautiful photos!

What camera setting do you use to get the car lights to "stream". Can't think of a better word for this - especially beautiful in the night pictures.

Thank you so much. These are wonderful memories for me. As I'm a terrible photographer, I have to depend on people like you, Tom!

Thank you all for the kind words. There are more to come soon.

HappyCheesehead - That is one of the few shots where the gray overcast skies actually helped the soft fall colors stand out. As for a royalty, just consider it a B-Day gift.

Barb - I booked directly with Air France. You are in San Diego right? If so, the only way for you to get nonstop is to fly out of LAX

jodeenyc - I used the 'aperture priority' setting on the camera. So the shot was taken at F16 with a 18 second exposure.

Tom

I just added two new sub galleries. One of the food you see in the windows and open air markets. The other is of Nore Dame, a photographers dream canvas.

Inspirational, thank you.

Beautiful - thanks for sharing

Tom,

I am from north of Seattle, another PNWester.

Barb,

Sorry my bad. But like I said, go to Air Frances web site. I think they do 5 non-stops a week to Paris. It leaves at about 5pm and arrives a little before noon.

Tom

Absolutely beautiful pics

You must be a professional! I haven't seen a postcard thatcan compare!

We visit again in April and your photos warm my heart!

thank you

Linda

Hi Tom,
These are such gorgeous pictures. When were you in Paris? We were there from October 6-10 and I don't think the colors were quite as far along. It was a real treat, especially for desert dwellers like use, who don't get to see much in the way of fall colors. Thank you for posting the link to your pictures.

Linda - Thank you so much, I am glad you and the others like the photos. And to answer your question, no I am not a proffesional, just a serious hobby for the past 30 years.

BevK - I was in Paris from Nov 1st -Nov 9th.

There will be 2-3 more sub-galleries to be added soon.

Tom

Thank you for sharing. Paris is stunning in the Fall. (and anytime in my opinion).
