Congratulations! This is the Image of the Week selection for the Travel and Culture Gallery, week ending 29th June, 2012!Rive Gauche, Paris

My friend was accompanying on a walk in the rain through the two islands in Paris asked if I was bringing my camera. I always do since, if I leave my camera at the hotel something good will happen. Turns out I should have brought my tripod too. A small split in the horizon allowed the most intense colour to develop after a very wet cloudy day. Ironically it was the best sunset I had seen after spending a month shooting landscapes in Brittany.

Canon 5DMkII, 16-35mm 2.8L, f14, 0.8s.

:shock: Wow! That is some intense color Kit Yoong -- fantastic reflection too. Stunning image -- I assume you used the support of a bridge railing?

The glow is really beautiful. Yes, everytime you don't bring out your camera and/or tripod, something good will happen. So I just carry it everywhere unless I know there definitely won't be any shooting opportunity that I'm interested in, e.g. being dragged along to Disneyland by the wife...

Correct! I braced it against a bridge, good enough for exposures of a few seconds.

Intense glow, lovely. I get that sometimes too, when I'm out without my gears the sunset/ sunrise will be amazingly good!
