Best of 2016 Paris, La Défense

Paris, La Défense · **2 Likes**

Not sure if Ricoh Theta is allowed so taking some risk here...

The following photo I have taken during my business trip to Paris last October. The weather was great so I could do some sightseeing by the way.
I am not considering this one as the best, having probably the same problem as most of you guys...

That looks nothing like the Paris that I remember (later 1950's). But this image really shows a huge panorama of La Défense in a fascinating way. An excellent example of what the Theta can do. Much more open than a regular fisheye shot. Well done. Thanks.

What is Le Defense? Is it Military HQ or something?

For me long ago as a child, it was mostly a Metro stop. I never went there, but as the end of line 1, I always saw it on the Metro maps.
