    I love the feel to this one Al – its almost like being there! The Paris rush hour!!! Reminds me of the most frightening drive of my life in the Marseilles motorway rush hour!!! Cars all over the place! Excellent mood and love the way the distance fuzzes out like from the heat or pollution and black and white is a great choice!

  • Thank you for the confirmation on the bw choice. The orange pollution in the original did detract from the rest.

    What a great look in b/w. I peered closely to see if you’d altered this with grain in Photoshop or some-such editing. Fascinating view, and certainly looks familiar! Well done.

  • Thank you Jan. There is some editing for contrast, etc.
