. I travel with my trusty Canon 5D3 (has been to 41 countries now
!), and usually a few primes (24, 50, & 85), and a UWA zoom (16-35mm or 17-40mm).
.Cheers, greg99

.Thanks, TWA4Me, defintiely one of those cities where its hard to get bored
.Thank you, Matthew. And congratulations on the recent nuptials too
!Thanks, janehoya, was a beautiful city to explore for a few days.
. The Eiffel tower is a bit 'cliche', but it was definitely one of the highlights for me! You'll have to add it to your list for next time anyway.Cheers, chicagodes

. I thought I would be bored after 5 days in one city, but Paris delightfully surprised me.Merci beaucoup, gabdusch

Thanks for these amazing photos. For 10 minutes I was able to escape to Paris on what would have been a ordinary working day.

Love the photos and trying to guess where they were taken from.
In one of your pics I could see my place.
Am a fan of your travels.

Really wonderful photographs of a great city Thank you DanielW ! Amazed that you got ll of this from one visit-and that it is your first visit.
I am wondering how you got the shot of La Giocanda without any crowds? Your timing of many of the other photos is great also.

.I queued up quite early for the Louvre, and basically speed-walked to the Mona Lisa as soon as I got in just to see it up close before the crowds arrived.
