A few years back I walked near these fountains in Place de la Concorde and gave it a try at nite in HDR. They were a perfect match! Now I keep going back to find a new angle and view. This was from last November, I had my new fisheye with me…so I had to give it a try on the fountain! If you walk from the Louvre back to Arc De Triomphe, these wonderful fountains are on the way!
Its nice to go back to a subject you have shot before and look at it with a fresh eye (and a fisheye…lol). Keep mixing it up or improve on a shot you took but could have been better. In my opinion, familiarity in a subject is a key to photography growth. How many times have I shot the Austin Capitol Building?? Countless. Pushing the limits of your artistic eye makes you a better photographer. It makes you look harder to find a new great shot that you have yet to take. Just go out and take tons of pictures. A pro just doesn’t go out and take one shot and be done…they experiment as well!
