[Leica] IMG: Arc de Triomphe

[Jay Burleson]

Thank you Aram.
In this and other instances I've posted using a similar framing, here is 
my thought.
The main object, in this case, the Arc, is huge, and far away across 10 
lanes of roundabout traffic. There were plenty of people around it to 
give a sense of scale to the Arc. The people in the foreground don't 
need to be head to toe, as they are unimportant except to help establish 
a plane of separation.
