Here are some example of street lamps in Paris. Some are really old, some are new, in old design. I feel it helps a lot to the beauty of the city. I tried to combine them with some typical Paris landmarks. Hopefully you will recognise most of them!
Now, of course, it may be logical to show them nighttime. Here are some examples. It's difficult to harmonise between often too strong light and the more or less black background. I did my best.
