Military Guards at Versailles

Paris, France

December 29, 2016135 mm: ISO 200: f/5.6: 1/180 sec.

Sitting in line for three hours waiting to get in, I had a lot of time looking for anything to shoot. I had fun all week trying to sneak shots of the military/police with their assault rifles. I don’t know that they would have done anything if they caught me, but it’s always best to avoid confrontation while travelling in foreign countries.

The game of shooting military was one of my tips for photographing Paris. I published an article recently with 21 tips for photographing Paris.
