Wednesday I went on top of Arc de Triomphe with my boyfriend to see when Audrey Tautou switches on the lights on Champs Elysées (well, not her, as we were upstairs, but the result). I thought it would be more crowded upstairs but it was bearable and we actually could see something. After some minutes it was practically empty up there so we could take some good ones. It's no big secret, our camera is not a professional one, so it's bit weak in the night. Anyway I think we have some nice material in the end.
We want to make a stop-motion video - do you know any good jpg-avi converter program? I would post the result (just some seconds, this is our first one)!!

After we went downstairs to the avenue, taking some close shots of the lights and some windows, like Marks&Spencer which opened later that night with a big show.
Avenue des Champs Elysées - fab, right?
that's me :)
The Old Lady
a sculpture inside Arc de Triomphe
there are four main sculptures on the monument, this one is La Résistance de 1814
La Paix de 1815
La Départ de 1792 (La Marseillaise)
Le Triomphe de 1810
from close
the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
you can get to the Arch under ground
from further
the new Christmas lights
the south side
the lights change colors
they are eco-friendly LEDs, they will consume as much energy as 8 families during the holiday season (less than ever)
the new M&S store
lit also by LED
Later I'll visit the Christmas market as well..
