Vapour by David Gill

I was quite impressed by the number of jet vapour trails and the early morning mist hiding most of the Parisian landmarks. The sun is probably not quite in the technically right spot and is probably a bit too burnt out but such is the price of only carrying a small camera and this was the most interesting piece of sky and city skyline. Taken from the Sacre Coeur, Montmartre.
