A Parisian Weekend...

Post by talldan76 » Mon Feb 16, 2015 3:16 pm

Hi all...

Spent the weekend in Paris for a romantic break with the Mrs, but was allowed to take the camera with me, and managed some OK shots...

I wasn't able to spend too much time over any of the photos, but am quite happy with how some of them came out!

As you can see the weather wasn't fantastic... but was a very good weekend all the same!!

Thanks Andy...

Didn't go to Le Bourget I'm afraid - think I would have been shot if I had suggested visiting an aviation museum during the weekend!!

Here's a similar way to how I did the selective colour on the sign - it is based on Photoshop though, however once you do it once it is quite straight-forward!

I have a few aviation related photo's that I'll try and post later on, mainly from CDG whilst waiting at the gate on the way home - however these were through 2 layers of dirty glass so not the best!
