The Champs-Elysées in Paris with this year’s Christmas decorations in blue. The name refers to the place of the blessed in Greek mythology. The Champs-Elysées become an avenue in the late 1700s. The avenue is the broadest in Paris and is 2 kilometers long and runs from Place Charles de Gaulle to Place de la Concorde.

Hi,Ulf,
I do envy you for this shot as it betrays your visit in Paris:)
It's always nice to have a walk along one of the grands boulebards.
This shot conveys nice mood.People are on their way to where pleased.
A nice symbol of Paris and France.

Happy New 2008 Year in advance

Hej Ulf,
Trying to figure out how this was done, either this is a good old D&S (drive & snap) or it is an other example of life threatning behaviour!
Whatever, you came back to upload...
The perspective is good, the colours attractive!
Greetings,

Hi Ulf!!!

Beautiful night shot of les Champs-Elysées. I like your POV, you captured the whole avenue and the light decorations.

Happy New Year and Best wishes from me,

Rossy

hello Ulf...
once again great shot i love the lights....its a great street...
Regards PPP

Traffic jam in Paris! Good perspective view to the Arc de Triomphe. As well as the blue lights leading us there the lines on the road do too. The reflections on the wet ground are another attraction of the scene. Well done

Hi Ulf...this is a nice Christmas shot of Paris...I like the exposure you managed at night as well as the clarity and details in the image.

Hi Ulfe and happy New Year!
So, you were in Paris to admire the illuminations on the Champs Elysées! You are luckier than I am! I have never done that!
I like your photo, with the illuminations in the foreground and the arc de tiomphe in the shade at the back! Even the cars participate in the illuminations!
Well done!
Marie Louise.

Hej Ulf,
Great view of the Champs Elysées and the Arc the Triomph. The colours and illuminations are very nice. I recognize the Christmas decorations, I was in Paris last weekend, and they are still there. :-) Well captured!

Hello Ulf,
Very beautiful one!!!
The Christmas decorations sidelong the "Arc de Triomphe", with all these lights on the boulevard, looks really impressive :)
Best regards,
