Description

Probably one of the most photographed Paris landmarks. Light was everywhere and I new a timed exposure would give me light trails of the passing cars and ghosts instread of people which is what I preferred. I'm not 100% sure because I didn't try but I think there was enough light to take 'less' timed shot with less depth of field and a higher ISO without needing strobes/flashes. Most of the other tourists automatic cameras were triggering flashes.

Exif: F Number: 16, Exposure Bias Value: 1.33, ExposureTime: 30/1 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 17.00 mm, Model: NIKON D80
