As you can testify, the car crossed the way when traffic light was green for me !

It looks like the pedestrian walk signal is green! So in fact you're driving over people trying to cross the street!! I would hide this picture...

In fact the pedestrians were Hervé and me trying to cross the street... in vain. Wa waited for the stop signal to cross the street as everybody in Paris does... ;-)

This is a strange pedestrian walk signal. I like the effect on the photo.

The green shape looks like a drawing of a lizard or dragon with a wing and a tail curling up to the top right. This is a fun abstract shot.

Steve, I used a very secret technic of my ancestrals.
Well... I must admit. I checked automatic photo without flash on our old NPA. It did the rest. All I had to do was targetting lights during the 5 seconds pause. :)
I tried to draw figures with the lights, and found the result quite funny !
