Beautiful image. Love the muted tones.

Emmanuel, many thanks for your comment, Loic

I think this is great photography, it captures the essence of the city completely.

 

I think it would be really interesting to take a few more and make a collection, perhaps with some at a lower level so that you get fewer houses and more of a skyline, to add a little relief to the business of the rest of the image.

 

I don't know, but the feeling that I get when I am in Paris is that it really comes alive at night. I think you could have taken this exact image but at night, to show how it comes alive, and then have several images at different intervals during the day, or in different weather conditions, with more of a skyline.

 

Overall, I think this is a great photo and I think i think it has great potential to provide you with inpsiration for more photos of a similar nature!

Beautiful image. Congrats,.

Hi Darcy, many thanks for your thorough review and thoughts. I agree to almost all your comments. I have got a few more shots of roofs taken the same day, from various places in Paris. I still need to work on them. Unfortunately, I don't leave in Paris and I am only there accasionally for a few weekends during the year (and not only to do photography...), so I can't really afford spending several hours/days in the same area to wait for different weather conditions, different time of the day, and hang around to get different POV. But next time I will go, sure the weather, lights will be different and I will remember for sure your advices to improve. When I will move back to Paris it will even be easier (for the time being, having fun in London!). Thanks again,

I love Paris. Thank you for this beautiful picture.

Best regards.

So much to see here and in such great detail. And all those red chimneys! Love it!!
