When I saw this thumbnail, I thought I had been there. Looking at the larger shot I realize that I haven't. I saw the one at the Paris! Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas instead. I wish the French would stop copying our great buildings in Las Vegas. They even copied our Le Tour Eiffel (just kidding!). I guess I should be thanking them for the Statue of Liberty they gave us along with helping us to gain our liberty itself! Vive la France! Jim
this is a nice shot, with a wonderful dawn sky, but it would be stronger if you corrected the wide-angle distortion, to make the arch stand straight up instead of appear leaning back. ___
Hi PLara,
thank you for this advice. Usually I just remove the scratches digitally and sometimes enhance the contrast a little bit. Maybe I should go a little bit further with this pic.
