The City of Lights


In all my travels, I have found only the French truly understand lighting. They know how to use it to create a mood that enchances an environment without overpowering it. They know how to light every landmark so as to inspire awe, and they understand the difference it makes when a landmark is lit from behind rather than from overhead. How great it is that the Eiffel tower sparkles in a magical show every hour for the entire city to enjoy!
