About 07:30am. Still a few cars around so didn’t have much time to set up, but came out ok in the end.

All my shots further up the hill at the Sacre Coeur are a bit disappointing so happy to get this one!

Spent more time at the Pont de Bir-Hakeim and this couple were having their wedding pics done. They asked if it was ok to use the car, more than happy as it make a change for my pics to have any people in!

This bridge is just amazing, you could literally spend all day and night there and not run out of new angles and lighting opportunities.

There maybe more incoming from this lot! :)

Graham you got the apex almost perfectly. Making after years of denial you have to admit the driver wasn't the weakest link :)

Gary some great shots. The green looks amazing in contrast to the city

It's an interesting metaphor for marriage. She's dressed for a funeral and he's wearing his running shoes
