Last night, I was going back home from a photo trip with friends, when I spotted a film crew on Alexander III bridge in Paris . It happened to be the shooting of some scenes for the next Woody Allen movie: Midnight in Paris  .

Here are some noisy photos I’ve taken with my Canon 7D and a 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6. If only I had a fast telephoto lens… :(

Owen Wilson talking with crew on the darkened bridge, the group lit only by streetlights and the glow of someone's phone

Woody Allen in his glasses standing among the crew behind the camera, another crew member blurred by movement across the foreground

Crew packed around a boom-mounted lamp and a large bounce board on the Alexander III bridge, with a white marquee and coiled cables at the roadside

Production notice taped around a lamppost, headed Pontchartrain Productions, warning residents of a night shoot on the Alexander III bridge on 11 August 2010

Floodlit colonnade and steps of the palace beside the bridge, with film lamps and traffic cones laid out along the closed-off street

Loxam telescopic crane holding a lighting rig high above the treeline against the night sky, the lit palace behind it
