The traditional spring sunset alignment over Champs-Elysées known as "ParisHenge". I had a camera again this year but I still don't have a long focal... While this usually requires a 300mm, I had to use a 70mm and crop the center. But after all... not too bad for an handheld attempt I wasn't expecting anything from.

ParisHenge

About twice a year (around May & August) the sun sets right behind the Arc de Triomphe.

I wasn’t in Paris on the perfect day (when the sun is slightly higher in the arc) but did managed to see it nonetheless a few days later and capture it on my iPhone.

Between the times I was not in town and the times it was cloudy in the past 3 years I take this not perfect ParisHenge picture.

And a little timelapse of all the handheld pictures I took:
