Paris, Le Louvre, a cold evening one year ago.
Just the normal processing (rotate, crop, level) and a bit dodging.
4 sec exposure.

@ Katherine: just water with long exposure; on the outtakes you see reflective marmer:
Thanks to all for the nice comments (and nice score :)
For Paul:
Focal length: 13 mm
Postprocessing also included the straigthening of vertical lines (with DXO optics pro).
I'll post 2 outtakes same place same day after the challenge.

I am coming back after the challenge to check all your settings. Please ensure that the focal length is included. What an absolutely incredible capture - well done. 8.
Very nice blending of the old and the new, the reflection is very appealing, I am not sure how the building are positioned relative to one another, but the composition could be tweaked
vibrant colours, nicely sharpened, amazing sharp clean clear lines, Is this Paris??? nice DOF with the background just as sharp as the foreground, well done
I love this place, there are so many places you can stand to get wonderful images here. I like your composition and you have managed the exposure nicely.
