The glass and steel dome called La Géode was designed by Adrien Fainsilber and it was opened in 1986.

The “folie du rond-point” is one of the several red-painted steel constructions disposed in a strict 120-meter point-grid. The follies were designed by Bernard Tschumi.

I continue the Paris parks series with these three new pictures from the “parc de l’Ile Saint-Germain” (same as last week). Unusually empty for a Saturday afternoon (it’s already late autumn), it was easy to spot these lonely figures…

The 64 water jets in André Citroën park are a lot of fun for children during the last days of summer.

I continue with another three shots from Central Park; the first two are views on Central Park South from the pond.

After going every other day to the park for a year, one ends up with the “perfect” sunrise light over the Central Park West buildings and the clouds before the storm.

In winter, the mall provides a striking panorama of American Elms bare branches etched against the pale sky above.
