Vivid color photos of 1923 Paris, hub of artistry and progress. Jules Gervais-Courtellemont was born in 1863 outside Paris, in the province of Seine-et-Marne, but grew up mostly in Algeria.
A restless traveler and seeker of exotic sights, he roamed throughout the Middle East and north Africa, from Morocco to Turkey. He even traveled as far as India and China, photographing as he went. In 1894, he converted to Islam, and soon thereafter made the pilgrimage to Mecca. He returned with some of the earliest known photographs inside the holy city, which were published in L’Illustration in 1897.
Gervais-Courtellemont was one of the first masters of Autochrome, an early color photography process. The long exposure times necessary for the process meant it was only suitable for relatively static scenes. Renowned for his precise composition, attention to detail, and painterly use of light and color, Gervais-Courtellemont became a photographer for National Geographic. The vanished streets of Old Paris. Paris streets. Impasse de la Bouteille from the rue Montorgueil, 1865–68 “Widely acknowledged as one of the most talented photographers of the nineteenth century, Charles Marville (French, 1813–1879) was commissioned by the city of Paris to document both the picturesque, medieval streets of old Paris and the broad boulevards and grand public structures that Baron Georges-Eugène Haussmann built in their place for Emperor Napoleon III.” - “Charles Marville: Photographer of Paris”, Metropolitan Museum of Art Looking down the banks of the Bièvre River at the bottom of the rue des Gobelins (5th Arrondissement) in 1862 Near Arts et Métiers in 1864 Passage Saint-Guillaume, looking toward the rue de Richelieu, 1863-65 Rue de Constantine before its demolition, 1866 The no-longer existing rue Estienne in the 1st Arrondissement, 1862-1865 Top of the rue Champlain in the 20th Arrondissement, 1877 Urinal in the 10th, 1876 View of a spire of Notre Dame, facing Ile St.
A bolt from the bleu... Dramatic moment thunderbolt lights up Eiffel Tower. By Daily Mail Reporter Updated: 10:51 GMT, 1 September 2011 Illuminated in vivid blue and dwarfing neighbouring buildings, the Eiffel Tower’s impact on the Paris skyline was already dramatic.
But Mother Nature clearly felt she could lend the scene a little added pizzazz. This remarkable shot of a forked lightning bolt streaking through the sky behind the 1,063ft iron tower was captured by amateur photographer Bertrand Kulik. The 31-year-old from Paris – which is known as the City of Light – said: ‘The weather was dry and the sky appeared to be completely clear, but suddenly it started to thunder. ‘I quickly grabbed my camera and put it on a tripod by the window in the hope I could get an action picture – but I never thought I would get such a magnificent shot.’ Electrifying: The Eiffel Tower glows blue as it is struck by the forked lightning bolt. Vue du sommet et de l' antenne de la Tour Eiffel.
Auteur de la plus improbable photo de la Tour Eiffel , Stéphane Compoint s’est offert un tête à tête avec la cime de la Tour Eiffel (le haut de l’antenne), 324 mètres de haut pour une prise de vue unique en son genre !
Le résultat est édifiant (photo taille réelle à la fin de l’article) décryptage avec cet alpiniste urbain, un peu fou, que nous avons interviewé ! Qui êtes-vous ? Comment avez-vous eu l’idée de cette photo ? Je suis photojournaliste depuis trente ans, je couvre notamment des reportages à vocation culturelle, historique ou scientifique. Je suis aussi spécialisé aussi en prises de vues aériennes et sous-marines. Comment avez-vous réussi à prendre cette incroyable photo ? Cela était assez stressant car je ne pouvais pas voir mon cadrage « en direct ». Aviez-vous une combinaison anti radiation? Snow in Paris (December 8, 2010) Paris vu de l'espace ! Prenons un peu de hauteur pour regarder Paris sous un angle différent.
Ces photos de Paris vu de l’espace ont été prises depuis la station spatiale internationale (l’ISS). Sur certains clichés, on remarque que Paris, ville lumière, brille bien moins que Londres ! Voici donc notre sélection des photos de Paris vu de l’espace. A noter que la qualité des photos est assez inégale, car certaines sont tirées de films et non pas d’un appareil photo.
