Serge, I was going to visit the Opera this evening, but it's raining and overcast, so I'm sitting here watching this super video. Nice work. Wish I had seen this twenty-four hours ago when there was a nice sunset over Paris. Next time I visit Paris, I guess.

And due to the trains not running to the airport on Saturday, I caught the bus from where you see the bus in the photo above. I saw people up on the roof where you were. Looks like a great spot!

You're a terrific teacher. Thanks for the education, and making us/me a better photographer.

[@davidpavlich8939]

I graduated from the 'Serge Ramelli School of Restraint' several years ago. 😊. I've used your presets on some of my B&W architectural photos that I've sold. Good stuff, Serge!!

I follow Serge since 2013 and a learned alot from him.

Hi Serge, great stuff as said many times before. I am also going to Paris next week..... 🥰 One thing I asked you some time before is, if you could make a video solely showing how you manage all your files (from import, development to finally archiving), because I believe this is one of the more difficult areas of LR. I mean I can manage them well, but think it is a bit difficult with LR. Please show us your way of managing *a lot* of files from different years and holidays etc. - Thx !!

As always very nice photos. You mentioned you'll be doing 2 to 3 videos per week again which I think is awesome, thanks in advance for taking the time to produce these videos. If I could make a request for the topic of one of the videos please. In a lot of your videos you mention that you crop to 16:9 and a lot of galleries prefer this crop. I also prefer this crop for displaying images on a monitor. Doing this crop fills the monitor with the photo with no black border. That being said, where I run into problems with this particular crop ratio is getting photos ready to print. It seems this crop doesn't work well for standard print sizes. With this in mind, could you do a whole video (or two maybe) just on getting photos ready to print and cover cropping, aspect ratios etc. in detail please?

Thank you very much for your kind comment and yes, this is a great idea!

[@lieslwalshphotography]

Incredible view of Paris!

[@SergeRamelliPhotography]

[@JimEmbury]

Thank you Serge! For sharing and your generosity.

[@SergeRamelliPhotography]

Thank you very much for your comment! Is there anything else in particular that you would like to learn on photography? I will make a video about it :)

[@mikeslater1545]

Nailed it!! WTG!

[@martinlennon4673]

Amazing and inspirational ! Thanks Serge 👍

[@svetlanagrobman3476]

Very enthusiastic and interesting😊

One other advantage to using picture profiles in the camera is that it can help you optimize your RAW file too in a way. So since the histogram is based on a processed JPEG in the camera (the embedded preview, for which most cameras it is based on the picture style selected, if any) then if you know you always like more vivid or neutral colors/tones, you can use that to ensure you don't clip anything and you are getting the data you need in your RAW file for the way you edit.

Great to get the location but also to see what can be done hand held. I would need never have attempted a handheld pano at sunset but will now give it a go

[@mrtherapist9040]

I was there about 5 years ago, and I got away with using a tripod. But, it was in April and I remember it not being too crowded on the evening I was there. Maybe, it was just luck

[@libophotos]

Merci bcp Serge pour cette vidéo. Dit moi, a tu encore une chaine francophone, ou bien tu utilise cette chaine pour tes vidéo Fr/En ? Car sur ta chaine tutoriels, je vois que ca fais plusieurs moi que ta plus poster. Je te remercie d'avance, et bonne continuation Bebel.

[@healinginfluence]

I would love to see some less well known places to make photos in Paris.

[@opalyankaBG]

That was great to watch! Just a remark though, as I noticed you've used a relatively fast shutter speed. With the OIS on your lens which should work in conjunction with the IBIS in your camera, wouldn't you've been able to use a slower shutter speed and thus lower ISO?

[@JuanGonzales-mi6xx]

Are you ever doing a workshop in California?

[@AdaLis1960]

Your camera is attached to a program. What is the name of the program?

[@adrianlazureanu8133]

I did use a tripod on that terrace and nobody said anyting.
