U bring everything in a havesack or a waist belt with your lens at the side ??? maybe it will good to have a photos of your set up so that we can have an idea of how you do it...for me, I went around with just these few lenes on my thinktank bag and already killing me...

I brought the 24-70 and 70-200mm with my 580EXII in my NG bag 5070 and i carry a tripod with me. Well photography is about sacrifices so lugging around about 8kg of stuff isnt so bad actually. For me im not scared of the cold so i dont wear much clothing, mostly 2 layers only

Very beautiful photos indeed. You captured what a great civilization Europe was. I can imagine what it's like during the Roman Empire and Medieval times. Waw! :lovegrin:
Nice shots on the people expression too.
Europe is certainly me and my wife dreams. Do you mind inform me how much is it? Thank you.

As we all know, the Louvre museum is famed for the Mona Lisa, i was pretty hyped up about it at first, but to be honest it was kind of overrated :bsmilie:

Great series, love every single pictures that you post. How do you manage to order their local food? I belive some of the restaurant don't serve english menu or they do?

On my last day in Paris. took a day trip to the Versailles Palace, and it was seriously far from the City itself by train.

187.

 

[hetfieldpaul]

The walk from the Versailles Station to the Palace is pretty long, given the cold weather and the icy streets makes it even worse, so if anyone's lazy to roam the palace gardens they should rent this :bsmilie:
