It's hard to beat a great sunset.  We all know that.  But when you are in France and you get a great sunset?  Well, that's something to write home about!  Or in this case, write a blog post about.  :-)  

Here's a few pics to enjoy - and I sure hope you enjoy them.  I definitely enjoyed being there and taking them!

Paris is a beautiful city - that's basically an undisputed fact.  But on my recent visit there, I found beauty in lots of unexpected places - including inside a cafe, inside the Musee d'Orsay museum.  Here's a visual tour of the place, which is the home to many of the great works of the Impressionists.  Enjoy!

It's always hard to get up early for anything - even if it's something you love, like shooting sunrise.  But then again, you can't shoot sunrise any other time of day except morning, so an early rise is sort of a requirement.  So I did just that when I was in Montpellier, France a while back - and it was well worth it!  And it was an amazing sunrise!

Do you ever find yourself in the wrong spot when the light gets awesome?  Yeah, me too.  So I do what any sane person would do - RUN and find a good spot!  Luckily, I didn't get hit by any of the bewildered Parisian drivers!

Ah, the beauty of Notre Dame in Paris!  And even prettier with a huge Christmas tree out front!  Click on through and have a look - there are 7 photos for you to enjoy today my friends!

Here's a collection of shots from a FABULOUS sunset I shot recently in Montpellier, France.  Although I was tired from no sleep on the flight over, I just could NOT resist getting out and exploring a bit.  Then to get rewarded with such great light - well, let's just say I was pretty dang happy!

How about some iPhone shots from my recent visit to Paris, France?  Sound good?  Great!  Here you go!  This is 10 iPhone pics from that beautiful city we all love.  Take a look and let me know your thoughts!

I was in Montpellier, France last week and found it to be awesome.  As you can imagine, I gunned a MASSIVE amount of photos, but I am still in France (yay!) so today's post is a collection of 10 iPhone shots from last week in the lovely southern French city of Montpellier!  I think you are going to enjoy these!

This may qualify as my longest post ever, at least in terms of the number of photos that it contains.  But, it was worth every minute it took to prepare it for you. Click through to enjoy a visual tour of that most beautiful French Chateau in the Loire Valley - Chateau de Chenonceau.  Then pack your bags - you're likely to want to travel to France asap!

How about we step back into history today?  Specifically, 16th century France - does that sound good?  It does to me, so I hope you will come along for the ride.  It's going to be fun, educational, colorful (of course!) and hopefully inspirational too!  Vive le France!  (or something like that)

Montmartre is a beautiful part of Paris, which is itself a very beautiful city.  Today's photo tour of Montmartre is done in honor of the great painters who once roamed the streets here.  I took a collection of photos and converted them to digital paintings!

Lonely streets in a small French town, around the blue hour...
