The flag photo is a reflection from the surface of some water.


At that link are several other photos showing landmarks and daily life in Paris.

Thanx for posting this Plane. This proves why the rest of the world is jealous of France. Like Martha Stewart ,who is also soundly hated, they do everything better than you.

Honestly, I looked at that picture of Paris and I thought "looks like a rat warren."

Provence is much nicer.

What Alabama Town has a statue dedicated to an insect?

Memphis is really prettier than that photo shows.  The Pyramid really anchors the Memphis Skyline from across the river but more sites are not showing it since the FedEx Forum has effectively shut the Pyramid down.

It's a shame really.

Quote

"...the 15 towns in the US named "Paris."

As of this writing, not one of these municipalities has changed its name to "Freedomville," or "Patriotown." A few podunk Parisians have celebrated their French connection with replicas of its most iconic structure -- the Eiffel Tower.
