My favorite time to shoot panoramas is the blue hour. The hour when the sun hides behind the horizon. It still lights up the sky for a few moments, giving it those beautiful colors, before hiding completely until the following morning.
The Avre footbridge is an aqueduct bridge built between the Bois de Boulogne in Paris and Saint-Cloud, according to plans by Gustave Eiffel.
