It looks like it is in the 1st arrondissement, Rivoli Street, along the Jardin des Tuileries.
Thanks for your website Sam, it is definitely the best.
HOW DO YOU GET THE SKY TO LOOK LIKE THAT??
Posted by bao at October 13, 2006 03:12 AMI like the composition in this one.. and it's a nice contrast to the photo you posted yesterday
Posted by Susie at October 13, 2006 03:46 AMbut this is _exactly_ paris. unfortunately i've only been there once and had a terrible food poisoning that day so i sat at notre dame for whole seven hours, but this is what it looked like on the other side of the seine :D

Posted by sirstick at October 13, 2006 04:25 AMHi,
Should it be between "la Madeleine" and "place de la Concorde", in "rue royale" ? It seems to be. But it could be elsewhere.
Independently of this geographical notice, I want to say to you I like your pictures, I almost come every day to watch your adds.
Bye
I would say on the riverside, follow the road to get to Notre Dam...
Atleast thats what my photos of the same looking buildings tell me!
Posted by Hitesh Sawlani at October 13, 2006 06:06 AMSorry, I can't help you, even if I live in Paris.
It's an haussmanian building... you got, like, thousands and thousands of them, in each part of the city...
You could be interested to look at his history : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baron_Haussmann
Posted by Johann at October 13, 2006 06:22 AMVery dramatic
Posted by navin harish at October 13, 2006 06:23 AMwow! the right building seems falling over the other one...
;-)
Really pretty tones here.
Posted by Laurie at October 13, 2006 08:08 AMWow... great shot! Very well balanced lighting and perspective! HDR?
Posted by Wee Keat at October 13, 2006 08:11 AMElegant looking places. I wonder if you were aware and intentful in tilting the camera off level and vertical? It doesn't bother me in this image but it has been overdone a lot by magazine editors etc. as a trick to give "motion" to an image. Many times, to me, it just looks cockeyed. I guess I'm a square despite haveing been labelled a hippie in the 60's.
Posted by Hugh Petrie at October 13, 2006 08:20 AMwow!
Posted by shula at October 13, 2006 08:36 AMAll the buildings look the same in Paris!
Great picture.
Posted by Benoit Shelston at October 13, 2006 08:56 AMThe funny thing is that this photo could've been taken anywhere in Paris! It's all the bloody same.
Posted by Dustin at October 13, 2006 09:01 AMIt looks like the Champs Elysees to me. But perhaps there are other sections of Paris that look like the buildings along there.
Great picture :D i like the color and the exposure compensation :D

Sorry But my english :S

Posted by rob at October 13, 2006 09:33 AMdoesn't really matter, 90% of paris looks like this ;)
Posted by dominik at October 13, 2006 09:53 AMIt's in one of the 20 arrondissments :-) Seriously, that's such an architypal shot of Paris, it would be one of a thousand different intersections.
Posted by vladhed at October 13, 2006 09:59 AMbeautiful. very well chosen composition. great one.
Posted by kurt at October 13, 2006 10:00 AMThe detail your camera captures Sam, just makes me so envious. The flowers in the flower boxes, the curley Qs in the wrought iron ... ~sigh~. This is a wonderful shot taken at a very interesting angle.
Posted by Lynn R at October 13, 2006 10:09 AMhot damn. how do you get those colors so... wonderful?
Posted by aaron the bold at October 13, 2006 10:36 AMPLEASE POST MORE PICTURES OF PARIS! :O
Love it Sam, keep it up!
Very nice color; the contrast between the hues of the buildings and the sky complement each other nicely.
Posted by John at October 13, 2006 12:23 PMGreat photo. I was in Paris this summer and this takes me right back to that amazing weekend.
Posted by Thomas at October 13, 2006 12:26 PMIt's hard to say all the buldings in Paris are like that !
Posted by SeBBB at October 13, 2006 02:00 PMIsn't that near the Opera House, in the 9th district?
Posted by Rob at October 13, 2006 02:50 PMNo idea how you create such beautiful contrast. truly marvelous Sam. Of the last week, this is my favourite by far.
Posted by Mo Hashim at October 13, 2006 04:05 PMI really really like the angle of the building on the right compared to the one on the left. I looks like multiple photos.
Posted by Andrew at October 13, 2006 05:32 PMrivoli ?
Posted by b_adele at October 13, 2006 06:33 PMlooks great, mate
Posted by cn at October 13, 2006 07:55 PMLooks very much like one of the apartments from the movie jason bourne identity. very paris with french balconies... should wish I had one here in Stockholm
Posted by Haakon at October 13, 2006 09:10 PMWow .. This Is Really Good. . .

Posted by Kristy at October 14, 2006 02:44 AMBoulevard Malesherbes en remontant vers la porte Champerret après avoir dépassé la place Saint-Augustin…? Mais en tous cas, aux alentours du XVII° arrondissement… Quelqu'un a une autre idée…?!
Posted by jchris at October 14, 2006 02:49 AMSam

smn spyin on you
lol
beautiful shot. i love Paris
Posted by max at October 14, 2006 08:13 AMBuildings like these have just written 'Paris' al over them. This nice shot says so much more than just the millionth shot of the Eiffel Tower.
Posted by Maarten at October 14, 2006 03:12 PMIndeed, it could be many places in Paris :-))
Posted by .:Oscense:. at October 14, 2006 05:03 PMI love the sky :) very pretty, and nice effect with the angle tilted up at the buildings
Posted by Amy at October 14, 2006 05:27 PMI like the chalk feel & camera angle of the this photo. Niceee
Posted by Abraham Alexander at October 15, 2006 11:57 AMI'm lovin' the tones in this shot. That pastel pink feel mixed with the blues is very soft and soothing.
Posted by Richard Houtby at October 16, 2006 09:55 PMAs someone said, this could be in many places as it's a building by Haussmann. No matter, it's a beautiful photo as usual!
Posted by Eric at Paris Daily Photo at October 28, 2006 06:52 PMSo crisp, and so beautiful... as usual !
Sorry mor my poor english :-p
