Well, I am home. I just spent 3 weeks in Italy, Switzerland and France. It was really amazing! Here are some of my favs!



1. This was a carnival that is set up just on the outside of the Tulieries Garden in Paris France next to the Louvre. The building on the right is part of the Louvre. I was looking in the opposite direction to take a photo of the Effiel Tower during sunset but the clouds were rolling in over there and the sunset was getting snuffed out. On my walk back through the gardens the reflected light into the clouds opposite the sunset was where the party was happening! I set up the tripod and played around with shutter speed so I could get a few with motion and a few without. FYI- I was stopped by a park official who told me to put my tripod away since I didn't have a permit. Who knew I needed a permit!?? LOl. Well.. he walked away and I continued shooting...I felt like a rebel!! lol

2. The last photos are from Bellagio on Lake Como in Italy.

It was an amazing trip. Later I will post some of my favs that I took with my cellphone while just walking around. These were all taken with my d750. Many of them I used grad nd filters and a tripod to shoot. The ones of the carnival rides (3 and 4) were actually shot hand held!!


If you are interested..I usually post my photos on Facebook under my page Alissa Beth Photo.
Thanks for looking!
