George under Fire

Uploaded: July 15, 2005

Description

F3.8, 1 1/2 second, full stop underexposed to improve shutter speed and tone down highlights, no tripod, no flash, no image adjustment other than slight sharpening and cropping. Too late to get close to the fireworks for French Independence Day, at the Eiffel Tower? No problem - line up behind George Washington's equestrian statue at Place d'Iena and fire away.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
