A Very spectacular sight. Were you on a helicopter or was it through the plexiglass of a commercial airliner?

Hos did you take this shot; it seems to be on a long exposure so it can’t have been anything moving.

Hey guys – thanks for the comments. This was taken from a tower in Paris. I would tell you the name, but I honestly can’t remember it.
Apparently, the tower caused quite a bit of controvesy when it was built, many people thought that it was an eyesore. It costs about 10 euros to go to the top and you get an unobstucted 360 degree view of the city.

The tower is called the Montparnasse tower, in the 14th district of Paris.
Very nice shot of the city of love ! I live there and I can tell you it gives me another point of view of the city
