A superb photograph! Everything is right...the church, the angle, the colors, the exposure, and that sky! Delightful!

I love the picture. It's avery grand church. This is one of the areas of Paris that I haven't seen. I think I will next time.

I thought I knew every church in Paris at least from reading, but I don't remember this one. It's gorgeous, and as Jacob said, a stunning photo.

The church really seems to be reaching, stretching, heavenward.

In 'Femme Fatale', a not so good movie by Brian De Palma, three of most important scenes were shot around and inside this church.

Groan: you go to Paris plage???

@ ciel - Not anymore, now we usually leave before it begins. You won't believe the pictures you can take there...

Not in a million years. You'll never get me to go, even for the sake of pictures! ;-)
