New Horizons

It has been a realllly long time since I have posted any new photos.  And since I have been here for 3 months now (here being Paris..duh), I feel that I should update with some France photos.

So here you go, the first of what I am sure will be many fond memories and photos from the other side of the pond.

I really like this first one.  We were at the Louvre with Julia's parents and I leaned against the glass pyramid to try and get the reflection of part of the building on the glass...I think it turned out well.  I took this photo with our 50mm prime 1.8.

This one is from the Dune De Pilat in southern France (close to Bordeaux).  I really love it because of the framing with the water on either side of the mound and I even like the sun spot...especially since I have vivid memory of how sunny and hot it was that day...Also, I love how small Juls looks in the pic.  It was taken with the 11-16 Tokina F 2.8.

Finally, this picture is of Mont Saint Michel in the Bretagne region of France.  We picked out a spot and camped for about 2 hours until the lighting was just right to get this one.  It was taken with the Tokina wide angle with a slow shutter speed...A sixth of a second I believe.

Enjoy...more to come.
