Haha, lol. That looks like exactly like the alley in Day of Defeat map: Anzio, the starting place of allied team.
Posted by m0nkei at March 15, 2007 03:30 AMI'd leave out the lowest part with the claddings and rop it to just sky and roofs. But in general I like this puzzled look of old towns!
Posted by Erik at March 15, 2007 05:37 AMGood shot. I like it!
Posted by Rodion Kovenkin at March 15, 2007 05:38 AMTypical roofs from Paris ;-) Well framed, nice shot !
Posted by eric at March 15, 2007 06:07 AMSam, great choice to shoot this part of Paris. This could be anywhere overseas. This could be my hometown: Bucharest, Romania. The huge antennas brought back memories.
Posted by Lx at March 15, 2007 06:34 AMi love the colour of the sky Sam. The overall sharpness is also outstanding. Nice architecture :)
Posted by Ryano at March 15, 2007 07:45 AMI like the subtle graffiti on the top left corner. European cities always have an exotic feel for us Canadian.
Posted by Brian at March 15, 2007 08:41 AMNice one, I love Paris but now living in Montréal this picture is a nice representation of what I feel thinking "Paris".
Posted by Laurent at March 15, 2007 08:49 AMCertainly a good record photo of typically decaying architecture. New it would have looked great, but humanity is getting too jammed together which is way unhealty from what can be observed, and this looks crowded.
Posted by Hugh Petrie at March 15, 2007 10:24 AMLove this! Wide expanse of sky, monocrome buildings, interesting architectural texture -- very nice! And you're lucky to be in Paris!
Posted by cathy at March 15, 2007 11:28 AMThis really shows the streets of Paris like they are. Your colours are always gorgeous !
Posted by Régis at March 15, 2007 12:03 PMgreat shot.... so much to explore:)
Posted by Pieter at March 15, 2007 12:39 PMWhat a crappy picture! (just kidding, nice)
Posted by Ed Shakleton at March 15, 2007 12:51 PMso perfectly french...I have a similar photo of parisian rooftops on my wall and there is just no denying that it's any other place.
the tones in this are gorgeous.
Posted by degan at March 15, 2007 01:05 PMHello Paris, you miss me.
nice shot
Love the color and mood!
Posted by Tony at March 15, 2007 02:00 PMI like blues and browns for my own work (painting portraits): the impression of a cheekbone due to a warm brown or the recession of an eye socket's blueness is a lot of fun to play with.
Posted by lyn at March 15, 2007 02:09 PMvraiment très joli
Posted by Wilfried at March 15, 2007 03:03 PMj'aime cette profusion d'info dans une même photo. puis un ciel qui libère. très beau
Posted by objectif-plume at March 15, 2007 03:59 PMNot your typical picture of Paris!! A different perspective as always :)
