The Tour de France is underway, so for #streetphotography Friday I am sharing this shot of a very excited young fan on the Champs-Élysées. I took this photo a few years ago on our first trip to see the race in person. Of course, the racing was exciting, but the spectacle of the Tour as it rolls through town is pretty amazing even if you aren’t a cycling fan.
See a couple more shots of fans from the Champs-Élysées stage below, and on the subject of cycling, don’t forget to enter my Bicycle Photography contest before next Thursday.
All shots taken with my Canon PowerShot G12. Follow @photocontests to see the winners and to learn more about the daily contests.
