Just watched you Interview on”Behind the Shot”and immediately wanted to view your channel to learn more. Love the Paris photo walk extremely helpful 😊thanks
The PhotowalksTV in Paris series starts here with the greatest hits! Over the next few weeks, we'll also take you to the best neighborhood in Paris (Rue Cler) and most photographable: Montmartre. Stay tuned!
Thank you for you excellent photowalks filmed with the iPhone. Can you say a little about how they are assembled. Video editing software? Is that done on the iPhone also
Thanks so much for the comment. This calls for a full, in-depth post in the newsletter. Give me a few days, and I'll get it done. I'll also let you know here when it's up. BTW, I edit the show on my Mac in Final Cut. But more to come!
Nice postcard of the City, a good introduction for a deeper view. But... "the museum is cool" ? I worry a bit about this one. We are here with the largest museum in the World, and one of the oldest (it used to be defensive castle, then the residence of the King, then a "basic" castle, then a King's art museum, then split between the Museum and the Ministry of Finances, etc.). Where is the "cool" thing here ? Try a proper visit, not that touristic sprint too many are doing. If you want to appreciate, understand, experience, the place the way it should... I can serenely affirm : plan on spending some 8 to 10 weeks in the Louvre. Just as a reference, the Egyptology departement is large and rich enough for anyone to invest between 11 and 14 days. And, aside from all the "departements", you have to take into account all permanently exposed statues and paintings and artworks, in stairways, corridors, wall corners, balconies. As a guide in Paris (which, I remind everyone, is to be pronounced "pah-ree"), I urge every visitor to spend time appreciating places and people. Not running, for it will bring you nothing but frustration. I remember those tourists I took to the hidden places of the Tour Eiffel (its proper name), who told me about their "visit" of the Louvre : "Yes, we've had quite some time in here and seen most of it.". And when I asked about their "thorough" visit, they told me "We were there from 10:00 to 12:00 this morning.". Other details : the river is "Seine", the hill by the north of the city is "Montmartre", the street markets are "marchés", last letters of French words are silent 99% of the time (such as "marchés", "Paris", "Champs"), "beret" hats are worn in the South-West of France and Pyrénées but only fashion-fans wear them in Paris (I personally don't know anyone, under 65 years of age, to ever wear a beret), we like Edith Piaf but she passed away in 1963 and French music has lived many revolutions since then (for those not-in-the-know, Daft Punk, L'Impératice, Christine and the Queens, Justice, Bruno Coulais, La Femme, David Guetta, Air, Yelle... all French). One must differentiate "arrondissements", which are official and administrative, and "neighbourhoods", which are cultural and historic. A turning point in this aspect is the enlargement of the city in 1860, after a decree of 1859 by Governor (or "Prefet") Haussmann. From January 1860, the city gained arrondissements 12 to 20 (the outermost ones), nearly doubling its population and increasing its surface by a huge amount. This caused many small suburbs to cease to exist independently, and turn into Parisian neighbourhoods : Belleville, le Petit Montrouge, Grenelle, Montmartre, Auteuil, etc.

It's pronounced a-ron-DISE-ment.
