Description

Walk through the beautiful, historic neighbourhoods of Paris with George Fischer, one of Canada's most celebrated and prolific landscape photographers. View his fresh perspective on the most romantic City of Lights.

Revel in icons such as the Eiffel Tower and the Avenue des Champs-Elysées, and discover lesser-known treasures representative of Paris. Travel from the Sacré-Cœur and the streets of Montmartre to the shimmering Seine River, past poetic cemeteries and the back streets of the Place de la Bastille. The alluring visions of Paris are a fabulous reward.

Among his major accomplishments is the book, Canada: 150 Panoramas, which was on the best-seller list at Chapters/Indigo and quickly sold out of its first printing.

An avid outdoor adventurer, George has hiked Machu Picchu in Peru and in Bolivia cycled what is dubbed "the world's most dangerous road." He has summited Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Gokyo Ri in the Himalayas and Torres del Paine in Chile. In Iceland, he hiked to raise funds for the Arthritis Society of Canada. And this Toronto Canada resident has now set his sights on canoeing the Nahanni River in the Northwest Territories.
