Would you believe the shot of Le Tour D'Eiffel almost did not happen. I was able to convince my fiance to go out for an evening walk with our cameras and tripod. I'm glad to hear from others that enjoy my photos. I am inspired by your words of encouragement. Thanks again for taking the time to review my site.
