Oddly enough, this is a better picture than my daytime shot of the Arc de Triomphe. That one was taken at 1/3 second shutter for some reason and, in the time before stabilized lenses*, that’s too slow to get a picture that is anywhere close to sharp. Even this picture is borderline, but I still think it looks good enough for sharing on the web.
Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (41mm equiv), f/1.8, 1/8 sec, ISO 100
* This isn’t actually true, Olympus had released the C2100uz at the time which was a beast with a 10x stabilized lens.
