Last week I visited Paris to do some architecture shots. I took the ICE from Nuremburg to Frankfurt, and from Frankfurt to Paris. Above you see some iPhone Shots from the trip. In Paris I had a hotel near l'Arc de Triomphe, from where I could reach my favorite area very fast: La Defense. This futuristic and very big area is full of interesting contemporary architecture. For me it was like a paradise. Two days I only did shots there. Especially at night you can do fantastic shots. Below you see some iPhone photos from the motives I shot there. The postprocessing will take some time, I will show the final results here.
The third day I used to visit the touristic highlights like the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre. In the Louvre, at carrousel du louvre, is located the paris apple store. I wanted to do some shots, but there were too much people hanging around. At dawn I visited
the tour montparnasse, but the highest viewing plattform was closed, so I only could do some High-Iso shots without tripod through the window of the lower plattform. At my last day i returned to the Apple Store at 8.30 in the morning before my departure to do some photos when its empty. I will also show the photos here, when the postprocessing is finished.
Some new shots from my trip to Paris. On my last day there I visited the Eiffel Tower very early in the morning. It was a very foggy february day, so no great view from the tower. But a very interesting and special possibility to make some photos, that are not looking like tourist shots. I could spend hours viewing Paris from above. You can find so many details everywhere. I hope I can share this feeling with this 6 photos.
If you want to visit the Eiffel Tour its a good idea to buy your ticket online previously, so you can avoid long waiting times.
Some Making-Of Shots:
This is an older shot from 2009. I visited Berlin in August 2009 for 5 days to shoot some architecture. I published already two photos (
Some technical details:
Canon 5D Mark II – Canon EF 17-40 f/4 L USM
ISO 100 - f/11 - 25 sec.
To get such a wide angle of view I made six 17mm portrait shots and stitched them together.
To get to this point is very easy, its only a few minutes away from La Defense Metro and RER Station.
On the following photo you can see the stairs where I made the photo. GPS coordinates: Latitude 48.89078760061403 Longitude 2.234686464071274

Ausstellung "1xMuseum, 10xRooms, 11xWorks, Jeppe Hein" im Neuen Museum Nürnberg (lief bis 06.Februar 2011)
Eine neue Serie ist online. Anfang Februar habe ich das nahegelegene Puma Gelände in Herzogenaurach besucht, wo seit Ende 2009 das neue "Headquarter" steht. Ein sehr spannendes Gebäude und zum Glück reichlich Sonne, auch wenn auf Grund der sehr niedrig stehenden Wintersonne ein paar unschöne Schatten enstanden sind.
Einen Tag später habe ich nochmal Abends zu blauen Stunde vorbeigeschaut und einige Impressionen eingefangen.
