5th February 2012 : Snow day on Paris
Almost every year, we get 1 to 3 days with snow around Paris. It’s a pretty rare event that makes the city look very different but it really doesn’t last for long. This year, I went to take some pictures at La Defense (again) but didn’t have the chance to go inside Paris.

Photo – La Defense : First Tower
5th may 2011 : inauguration of the “First Tower” at La Defense near Paris.
First is the name of this tower because it’s the first one of the revival plan of the La Défense district. It’s not actually a new tower since it was built over an existing building. The original building was 155 meters high and it has been totally refurbished to give birth to the First Tower which is now the highest tower in France with 231 meters. For this occasion, they organized a light show on the tower and I decided to go and try my new camera with some night shots.
