Since it got deleted in the Photography section because it wasn't my own work, I'd like to share this:

<img src="http://www.mijnkopthee.nl/images/1.76mbparisbynight.jpg">

Here's the URL if it gets REXED: http://www.mijnkopthee.nl/images/parijs_des_nachts.html

This is an awesome picture!

The city of lights.

The best part is the guy in the window at the bottom right. Here's this gorgeous cityscape, all those lights, and here's this little slice of life: a guy in his living room, looking out the window.

Incredible picture. It almost seems like it'd be impossible to get that great of a view, but some one did. It's just mind boggling to look at...

I love that huge stained glass window about a third of the way through. The camera picked out the tiniest details of it, you can see glass people in each pane.

Lovely picture. Now I know what Lestat must've felt.

Whoever put it together made a mistake. The left-most 150pixels or so are the same as the right-most 150 pixels.

Yes, and they also didn't mount the tripod completely perpendicular to the ground, or the building sits on an angle.

Left side is about 30 or 40 px higher than the right.

Wow, beautiful! Very very nicely done - I really have to get a bigger tripod, so I can make pictures like this. All I have now is a 3-inch one, and that won't do me much good!

That was AWESOME. Scrolling left-to-right, wondering when I'm going to see a landmark I recognize.... And then "Hey, is that a flying buttress?" and then BAM I'm looking square at the Notre Dame rose window...

This must have been taken from a tall building right on the quai on the Rive Droit, exactly eye-level with the Cathedral. My favorite part, though, is the view of L'Eglise Saint-Sulpice off to the right of the Cathedral. Just a gorgeous little church--ornate and gothic like Notre Dame, but with a really unique, intimate charm.

The other thing that is striking is all the construction going on in Paris. Just LOOK at all those cranes!
