Trailing Lights on the Champs Elysées

Place de L'étoile
It starts with a picture of trailing lights at dusk, looking towards the Champs Elysées

Then I moved, Clockwise, in order to capture the West side of the Arch, still looking towards the Champs Elysées, only slightly later.

So that I end up, at nearly 11:00pm turning my back on the Champs Elysées, looking towards the West, with the famous Marseillaise by Rude (the statue, not the anthem; the statue on the right East pillar, one of the most famous ever, by Sculptor Rude, who didn’t deserve his name, neither in French nor English).
