Arthur's Photos book - Meudon La fôret..

[art128]

Hello everyone, here's the thread where I will post all my photos of where I go in Paris and suburbs.


Sooo, to start, I took photos of the Front De Seine :






Note, the pictures are took with a non-numeric camera, so I've scanned it, sorry for he quality.. 

After, I go to the Olympiades area, it's a large urbanism project in Paris which started in the 1960s. This quarter is composed of identical residential towers (not all). It's the "china town" of Paris.





Plus, my first try at a panorama : [url)http://nsa06.casimages.com/img/2009/04/06/090406074613203935.jpg]here.[/url]

And now the BNF (bibliothèque nationale de france - National Library of France)







Hope you liked it.
Next time, the part two of Olympiades and BNF.

very nice indeed; they are very intriguing.  Any idea what that large factory looking building is?  With the steel all over it?  Has character....

Wonderful pics Arthur

I have been in the building that has ACCOR on the front. I used to work for the company a few years ago now and
I had to attend a meeting there. I must admit it was a surprise to see it amongst your pics. Brought back some good memories
Thanks for that and for sharing these wonderful pics too
