Paris Long Exposures

I just love to get my long exposure photography on, particularly in Paris. There’s just something about being out early in the morning, before the crowds, finding a composition that I like, setting up and slowing down, taking in the sounds and sights with this iconic city laid out at my feet, and having it almost to myself. Some of my most memorable Paris moments have been spent doing exactly this.

Turn 180 degree’s on Pont de la Concorde from the previous frame and this is the view. Paris, laid out at my feet in every direction and hardly a person in sight!
