Paris Part I - La Tour Eiffel & Musée Du Louvre


Bonjour! On Day 2 of the trip, I finally paid a visit to the Eiffel Tower! We were searching here and there the moment we stepped out of the subway and saw no hint of it. But just as we turned, the magnificent iron appeared right in front, beautiful and stunning. The weather did not really do us good that day - it was all gloomy and rainy. I guess we just had to settle whatever that's being put forward! At the very least, I was finally able to capture the tower in real, no longer just my little key chain! Excuse my abundance of repetitive pictures, I tend to get so undecided when it comes to photos picking that sometimes I wish I didn't snap that much! Anyway, I am also trying to document it from different angles, with different compositions and motives, so I really hope you love them! :)

The rain got even heavier on the day we visited the museum. We were stuck indoor but having able to see the real Mona Lisa was a definite bonus! The inside was also very beautiful with a lot of art pieces which I adored!

Happy Christmas, lovelies! Hope all's well! x

love, M

      Thank you! For the angle, I always try putting the objects/ people on the left or right. I love capturing a trail too! The main object on the left and a path follows from left to right so that the viewers can imagine a story in mind with that composition. Also, I like to use tree branches/ any other relevant things as front scene, and the main objects follow behind. You can play around with composition & find the ones you love! Google 3x3 grid on photography for more details :)

      Hope it helps xx
