Description
This photo was taken from the rooftop of Paris' Printemps Department store on Boulevard Haussmann looking north toward the Basilica of the Sacre Coeur, located on Montmartre, the highest point in Paris. Montmartre, mountain of the martyr, owes its name to the martyrdom of St. Denis, the Bishop of Paris, who was beheaded on the hill around 250 AD.

Nicely done, you picked a wonderful point of view for this city. The rooftops are fabulous with the variety of shapes and colors.
