Photo – Lyon 2011

 October  2011: Trip to Lyon

I spent 3 weeks in Lyon for a training course for my job. Since I was busy all day and I was back in Paris for week ends, I could only go out to take pics late in the afternoon/evening and I brought my camera only on the last week. I’ve already been to Lyon 3 times before with my compact camera, but when you have a DSLR, you don’t see things the same way.

I spent 2 evenings waling in Lyon. For the first one, I went to the old side of the city near the Fourvière Basilica where I could get panoramic view of the whole city at night. I was out for about 5 hours and walked more than 15 km. The 2nd evening, I went to the north side of the city and took some pictures in the Tête d’Or Park. It was already late and I didn’t have much time before the park closed. I walked about 10 km that day.

==================================================

For most of those pictures, I used my new ultra wide angle lens, the Tamron 10-24 f3.5-4.5. It gives awesome results for landscape. I had to buy a new camera bag that could contain an extra lens and I also had to buy all my filters again since this lens needs 77mm filters and my superzoom is 62mm.
