At the zoo part II

Some more zoo photos today. Unfortunately I don't know the names for every animal we saw.

These birds look like ostriches, but they are probably not, since the ostriches were in a different place.
As for the one on the right, I can only guess and this won't make me appear any better.
This is one part of the huge closed ecosystem, reserved for various kinds of birds. Ducks were having a good time swimming in the small river. At least, I hope they did.
A very nice place to go in general. It's a bit expensive to enter, but in order to feed and take care of all these animals properly, it's kind of a necessary evil.

Boat on the river

Some more practice next to the river today, only this time not very near Notre Dame. On a nice spot with a nice view, we saw also three cruisers with cabins and everything, where people actually sleep at night. I had no idea that these things exist in rivers as well!

This looks away from Notre Dame. There are interesting things to see even if they are not widely known.
Editing didn't make a big difference after all. I like the colour of the sky here.
This is not a cruiser. It's just a restaurant. Much longer ones exist and they are used also for some touring of the city.
Kind of looks better now, I believe.

Behind Notre Dame


On the previous post I said that I had "songs" instead of "photos", right? It seems that old habits are hard to forget. For today I have something sunnier than the previous times. One day in February, I took advantage of the nice weather and went near Notre Dame (translates as Our Lady) where I played a few songs (this time it's the word I wanted to use) next to the Seine river. And I took a few pictures while I was there and the scenery was beautiful.
Very nice light and the clouds give the sky an interesting tone.
Now the colors are quite brighter. I like it more this way.

I turned a bit to the right. Beautiful buildings, lots of people walking around (the majority were tourists) and the river underneath. But it needs more colors.

And, to be precise, I meant that it needed more intense colors. This is a bit better, I'd say.
And how would it look like under a full moon? Well, I guess we'll never know after all.

And that's about it for today.
