What is really exciting is their recent Vanity Fair news coverage as a favorite source for luxe-looking stationary and cards.

I also want to send a really big thank you to my friends Dan and Maria.  Their help and support has gone above and beyond and without them the show would have never happened, so thank you again.

And finally thank you to all my friends and family who came out to support me tonight.  It truly means a lot that you were there.

If you won’t make it to the show and are interested in the size and price of prints, please contact me at info@TheL-List.com.

Paris Architecture

Posted by Leslie in Escapes, France, Travel

Paris by Night, Le Louvre Architecture is a challenge for me.  I like details and large structures can be overwhelming to me.

Paris by Night, La ConciergerieBut I keep trying and I’m committed to one day buying a wide angle lens to experiment even more.

Paris by Night, La ConciergerieOne of my favorite photographers is Jean-Michel Berts (the French Ansel Adams of architecture).  He says “Architecture is the cultural reflection of a civilization” – so true, especially for Paris.

Paris by Night, La ConciergerieYou can’t visit Paris and not want to be a part of it.  The city is beautiful, imposing, and sometimes daunting (Which I’m sure the kings liked).

Paris by Night, Le LouvreParis is one city by day and another by night.  When the sun goes down and the lights go on the city sparkles, but with more than two thousand years of history it can also feel haunted.

Paris by Night, Notre DameWhen you have a car in Paris there is nothing better than a “Paris by Night”.  Driving around the city at night with no other reason then to enjoy the city lit up.

Paris by Night, La Tour Eiffel

Even if the photos aren’t perfection I hope they convey some of the emotion of seeing Paris by night.

Enjoy!

Leslie

PS: Visit the Sous Les Etoiles Gallery through January 29th for an exhibition of “The Cities of Jean-Michel Berts”.
