This photo is nearly as cheesy as the Brie =mascaraxglass and I enjoyed while we were in Paris, but I thought the blur of the cars and overall colour-tone of the shot looked nice.

And no wonder the cars are blurry, have you seen how they drive around there? The road around L’Arc de Triomphe is about four of five lanes wide, with no markings, no discernible rules and what appears to my English eyes as complete reckless abandon. Fantastic.

I'd also really recommend walking up the seemingly never-ending and tight spiral staircase to the top because its central location offers unparalleled views of the (very beautiful) city.

I don't know what that is, do you mean the camera details? I don't know where they are. I think I left them up the Eiffel Tower. I can however tell you that I took this with my 7.something megapixel Sony CyberShit on one of the night settings (can't remember which.)

:bow:

Beautiful! Gotta love the orange-ish and yellow-ish tones on the arc.

Well, I meant around L'Arc de Triomphe in particular. But you're right, London traffic is also a nightmare!
