Once we’ve been in Paris and recently I scanned some of the old dia positive films I shot there, for example timeless clocks – but I fear my message became too out off fashion in the meantime. However extremely “up to date”, what I read about Paris via designtaxi (An-Inflatable-Trampoline-Bridge) or via inspirefirst (featuring erotic fragments). For sure a real timeless artwork seems to be the composition below by Vin, sent to my group BLOG IT:

Another great shot of Vin, for sure not Paris, but another kind of ocean, Cappadocia:

P.S.: not to forget: the first balloon flight was in Paris, wikipedia writes: “…the brothers Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Etienne Montgolfier … gave their first public demonstration of their invention on June 4, 1783…”

my reply to Vin’s comment (read below):
thank you Vin, for giving permission to introduce your extraordinary photos in my blog; I never would dare to join a balloon ride – I only like to rest on my bench in my kitchen, playing a little fingerstyle arrangement on my guitar, dreaming I would fly in a balloon – so let’s call my piece in A major “BALLOON FLIGHT”:

Love the pic of France
“Urban ocean”, wow!… The inflatable bridge is really cool! Thank you, Frizz!
That is an amazing photo of Paris!
Wonderful pictures, a great artist
Have a pleasant week my friend
Ah Cappadochia, I failed to get a good balloon shot when I went
the Paris image is other worldly, excellent.
Thanks for featuring my photos today! In Paris I was amazed by the view that morning. The city still in the dark, very active already, was a dramatic contrast with the read horizon of the raising sun.
Cappadocia, well, that was an experience, the balloon trip in particular.
Very recommended.
Excellent blog btw. Congratulation.

Wow! Amazing photographs!!! So bizarre!
Nice photographs. Likes both photo but the second, taken from balongen, I think more about. Perhaps because of the landscape.
I apologize because I’m not as active on your page. Much has happened in my life and I’m still not “running”.
Wishing you a lovely day

Amazing view of Paris…
Watching the sunset or rise over oceans (whether it be an urban ocean or the usual endless waters) has always been attractive to people. Paris is not the urban ocean I prefer to swim in or even take a dip, but the picture capture is gorgeous.
It’s so beautiful! Ahh Paris… I so wish to go there one day!
I like your article’s intro:

“Narrow-mindedness kills,
it spreads fear and sadness.
It divides…”
Thank you!
Enjoyed your A – major, Frizz… beautiful flight!
hi Marina, your chakra tree painting, the first on your site,
looks a little like a new map featuring Spain,
trying to reach more distance to France –
maybe a good Tee shirt for the separatists there!

great pics and guitar playing
Alas I am not a musician but m an admirer of those that are. And I agree with you about the balloon ride. They are pretty to watch from the ground 
The pictures are outstanding, once again. And I’m with you – no hot air ballooning for me – prefer the view out of an airplane
Have a HAPPY week
