Fantastic food, great history, wonderful sites and amazing\u00a0architecture makes this city a great destination.\u00a0I had the opportunity\u00a0to visit Paris in the spring of 2012 and at the top of my list was a walk down the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es<\/a>\u00a0and a visit to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Arc_de_Triomphe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arc de Triomphe<\/a>. After purchasing a\u00a0ticket,\u00a0one has to go up\u00a0the spiral staircase to reach\u00a0the top of the Arc. As I climbed up I spotted what I thought was a great photo opportunity. The stairs went down and around in a very tight spiral. The problem? Lots of people coming up behind me. So, I snapped a few photos making sure that I had captured enough of the stairway to enable a successful people extraction in post processing. This image is the result of that processing.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2573\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2573\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20120401-Paris-Arc-de-Triumph-AE-copy.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2573\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2015\/08\/down-and-around\/arc-de-triumph\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/20120401-Paris-Arc-de-Triumph-AE-copy.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
