Ancient gazebo at Buttes-Chaumont

Today we walked to Parc des Buttes-Chaumont (oh yes, we walked!) and the literal high point of the day was this gazebo. I wandered off the trail to take this picture through the trees.

Though the day started off with a dreary white sky, around 3 pm the blue shone through. By the time we reached the top of this hill, the sky was clear of clouds. It looked like a beautiful spring day; check out the buds and flowers on the trees!

    I really like the effect of close and far. Light and dark. Lot of contrast.

    Was it chilly? It looks like it was chilly. I think it is because the sky is so blue.

    It was a bit chilly. We sat on the hill in the sun, but we didn’t stay long because it wasn’t as warm as we’d hoped.
