Notre Dame de Paris
This cathedral is very famous (even Disney made a cartoon with its name, inspired by the book from Victor Hugo). As a touristic place it is often crowded. One solution to avoid it is to go there at night with your tripod. During the day you can enter the cathedral...
The Louvre
The Louvre is a very famous museum (home of La Joconde). Since 1989, a glass pyramid is in the middle of the building (designed by Pei). Highly debated when it was presented to the public, it is now a symbol of this museum. I think that at night is the...
Opéra Garnier
Paris is a wonderful city, but I think it is even better at night. Among all the monuments in Paris, one of my favorite is this one. During the day you can visit it and it is worth doing it (at least for the ceiling painted by Chagall). During the...

Muir Woods
Muir Woods is fantastic year round - depending on the time of year, it can be damp and cool or warm and dry - rarely hot. Tripods are allowed and recommended due to the dim light when entering the canopy of tree's. During sunset, you may catch god-rays splaying thru...
