While walking along the streets of Paris after visiting the Louvre Museum, I came across this scene here and I was attracted to the green and gold of the fountain with the buildings behind as a backdrop. The sunlight against the water droplets made this an attractive scene.
Paris was a place that gave me many artistic inspirations as the museums, architecture and scenery were all very artsy and I would love to revisit again. I did not want to recreate a cliché scene of Paris and so I thought that the fountain was a unique scene and yet is representative of this amazing city.
