Race to the Arc ||Canon EOS 40D/EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM @ 65mm | 10″ | f/16 | ISO 100 | Tripod

This one was on a curb across from the street going up to the Arc de Triomphe. I took several shots trying to get one with a nice balance of lights on both sides which proved difficult with the traffic lights.

This also was an entry for the Wasatch Camera Club Competition in January. While it did take 2nd place in the Assigned category (Planes, Trains, and Autos) of my division, it didn’t get great marks with the judges (6 & 7). There were some really fantastic images in the other divisions, feel free to check them out here:

I had to laugh when someone from the Camera Club asked me if I had any more Paris pictures, seems I’ve entered a lot of them in the past several competitions. I’m afraid the answer is yes, I still have a few more :)
