I took a digital SLR out with us for our first day in Paris. I'm not normally a photographer, but this trip has been entirely about getting our hands dirty with multimedia. "All-platform journalists," as they say. So I got out there with the group to the Eiffel Tower and started playing around with the camera.
It's been roughly 10 years since I've taken a photography class. The last SLR I worked with was film, so it was a lovely change of pace to see exactly what went right and what went wrong after each shot.
And as I was reacquainting myself with F-stops and shutter speeds, I took this photo.

Our photographer Carlos Moreno ran in front of me and I snapped it without thinking or paying much attention. It ended up being my favorite picture of the trip, because it says it all. We are here to work, with this amazing city as our backdrop. And work we did, and work we shall.
