Pont Alexandre III

ByDMcA


Today’s photo:Pont Alexandre III. A long exposure shot of the Seine at the Pont Alexandre III, a wonderfully ornate bridge over the Seine by the Grand Palais in Paris.

I liked the way that the low evening sun lit up the gilded parts of the bridge and the statue on the far side. Taken with my Fuji X-T1 on a rickety Joby mini tripod. Given the circumstances, I’m quite pleased with the way it turned out.

    Today’s photo:Smoke. In between the extended periods of summer rain the English like to take their kit off, and lie sparko in the parko having a nice smoke. Shot last summer in the little park adjacent to the Oxo tower in London’s South Bank. I liked the guy’s expansive smoking style, his impressive tattoo and…
