Maya, I was so lucky this year as I got a Press Pass and so could get on the press platform to take photos from above. What a difference! Only that last of the three was taken from street level.
Jilly that top photo is the one you want to keep, it really is the best. I's got the sea and beach behind, confetti everywhere and the expression on the man's face is just perfect!
THe bottom one by comparison looks over-exposed, has little confetti and the expression on the man's face is nowhere as fun. It does give a better idea of where the man was standing though.
Visitors to the Fete du Citron need to know this guy takes his job really seriously. You have been warned...
Great viewpoint! I love the shot looking down on him. And, it is so clear too!
