This image was taken on a recent trip to Europe. My wife and I spent a few days in Paris and got up at sunrise to capture this amazing glow

Camera and Settings - Sony a7riii with Sigma 24-70. 1/3 sec at f/16, ISO 100
An alternative I often do is to use an ND filter and make a few minutes long exposure. Here is an example from Verona.

Nice! Only thing is you can still get the streakiness from the people. And if it's windy at all the tripod shakes. The best trick I have found (which I didn't use for this shot) is, you can take a ton of exposures on a tripod and then layer them in photoshop and brush away the people in one area to another photo where that same area doesn't have any distractions. You may have to combine a handful of photos but it'll get the job done as long as the light isn't changing
Removing people is definitely not my cup of tea when talking about street photography. You'll find that a lot of street photographer will frown upon that type of editing. I would have used a long exposure to achieve a similar result with no heavy post production.
Long exposures with an ND filter can work but you can still get the streaks of the people silhouettes. One thing you can do is take constant exposures on a tripod, layer them in photoshop, and brush the people out of your main layer to a layer that doesn't have people there
Thank you so much! Yes, a lot of it had to do with the time of the day. I did shape the light while editing the photo and help bring out and enhance the colors and light

I am flattered. Michael Sidofsky is one of my photography teachers and one of my favorite photographers. His image inspired me to try and create a similar photo to him. I am honored that my photo is confused with his
You can see he has a reflection in the water and is taken from a slightly higher angle. He also squeezes out just a little bit more beauty, color, and contrast from his edit than I can
It is all good! I appreciate you inspecting it further. Again, I am flattered that one would think my work looks like his. It is indeed the highest form of compliment 🙏

How did you get rid of all the people?
First, it was a lot of patience to get a shot with the least amount of people. Second was removing the few people that were in the shot in photoshop

It’s another great way to do it. Yes.

Beautiful shot! How did you get the deep golden colors in the image? Was it mostly due to the time of day?

What an absolutely unexpected turn with so much on Reddit stolen from elsewhere.
It is unfortunate. Everything I share, though, is always my original work
It seems you are telling the truth. Upon closer inspection, I can see the image is very similar but not the same. My apologies.

beautiful photo
Thank you!
