From Passerelle Leopold Senghor

Filed under: Photography — Claude @ 10:46 am

This is just one of my favourite places in Paris. I have posted quite a few photos taken from Passerelle Leopold Senghor, which is across the street from Musée d’Orsay.
When you stand there, wherever you turn, you have a great view over the river Seine and Paris. And the sky is often stunning

Sunset over the river Seine
In the sunset, the glass roof of Grand Palais

This was taken at the end of the rather chilly day, when suddenly, the sun decided to show its nose :D

  2. Thanks for this — will be in Paris for the first time in a couple of weeks. The Musee d’Orsay is on my list (so far way too short) of things to see — now I will know to look for the view!

    Just got a new Rebel and am trying to figure out how to use it, but I doubt my photos will be as lovely as yours. But I’m hopeful!

    Any suggestions are welcome… I don’t want to do much of the more traditional tourist stuff, apart from the “must sees”.
