Paris: The City More
than 100 years ago |
Paris
Photos features a modest collection of contemporary
photography, capturing the romantic spirit of the city
of Paris. Photos are available to view and purchase.
Paris receives some 30 million foreign visitors each
year; the Eiffel Tower
alone claiming 6 million. The contemporary photography
of Paris captures many of the famous landmarks known
to tourists, from the Louvre and its famous pyramid
entrance, to Notre
Dame, alongside some of the lesser known places
a little more off the beaten track.

We
have featured, around 200 old photos, the majority of
which capture the World Fair (Exposition Universelle)
held in Paris in 1900. Many of the constructions and
pavilions no longer exist, having been built solely
with the Paris exhibition in mind. However the Paris
Fair did give rise to Orsay
Museum, The Grand
Palais, Petit Palais
and Pont Alexandre
III (one of Paris' most famous bridges). These antique
photos are also available to purchase.

Paris blog features the adventures and tribulations
of an Englishman who has recently given up life in a
little working class town bordering the Saddleworth
Hills, and come to France. You can read about the ongoing
experiences of how he tries to get to grips with the
language, culture and people, along with observations
of daily living in Paris.

PARIS CITY TOUR GUIDE |
Paris
is not called the City of Lights without due cause.
If you are coming to visit and would like to capture
memories with your own camera, a tripod is always handy,
as the city springs to life at night. If luggage space
or cost is an issue, there is usually a wall or bench
you can use to steady your hand. Towards the end of
the day, if the clouds are kind enough to part for the
sun, the historic Parisian architecture captures a beautiful
quality of light and shadow which is worth pursuing.
