Photographer's Note
Nothing to say here, except that I liked the flag fluttering on the left stating "Welcome" in English & French beside the famed Eiffel Tower - La Tour Eiffel.
Stitch of 2 pictures to get this Wide Effect
Picture was taken just after noon : 12.20 pm CET

bonjour Angshu
certainly classic monument but not so classic POV and good idea to include the banner in the left corner
It makes the shot
Have a nice day
All the best

hello Angshu,
This is a beautiful Point of View produced here.Dont think it's cliched, rather unique. Excellent colours and light. The stitching is very good without any glitch.Gives the feeling of wide angle.

Hello Angshu,
Taking on clichés, trying to create something new, is a real challenge. This is certainly not the usual tired picture of the world's possibly best known tower. Instead of the height of the tower we see the nice curves of the base of the construction with four openings showing the sky. The composition has great symmetry, which however is broken in a nice way by the red welcome-sign.
Kind regards,
Gert

With your amazing POV you've transformed a classical picture on something else, more creative and nice. Excellent idea and well done, the sharpness is perfect and I like the light on the tower.

Hi NAMSTE my dear Angshuman
Sorry for my late reply as so crazy-busy weekday.
Quite unusual style a you but of course remains marvelous. So attractive geometrical shot.
Well considered framework and perfect composition are as usual, as your trademark too.
Thanks for sharing with your finest work and have a good Saturday, Best regrads.

A view which is different from the classical. You explored very well the arches and shapes, and still we see at a glance that it is the famous tower. I mean, you show it from a different angle preservering well its distinguishing features, which was perspicacious. Great lights and perfect composition!

Hello Angshuman,
finally a POV different from the usual postcards.
Good idea to stitch two images to obtain a wide pan.
Good job my friend!
Have a nice day

Namaste Angshuman
Always good to get a different view of a well-known subject like this, such a fresh take on something which has been photographed millions of times. Excellent stitching job and great framing no doubt. The angle shows the huge base (in relation to the massive height). Well, this is indeed a different pov which offers a different perspective. A creative angle and the wonderful colours of the sky show a huge amount of detail of the ironwork silhouette off to perfection, so intricate it almost looks like lace.
Cracking color, light and all well put together. Great shot, Congrats
Best regards

Hi Angshu,
I always wanted to take a picture like that but never managed it. Mainly because I had a bad luck for weather in Paris. I like very much the geometry and the blue sky adds a nice touch here. The play of the light and the shadows is also very attractive,
excellent job,

Hello Angshu,
It is hard to find a new angle on one of the most photographed attractions in the world, but this one is on the more rare side hehehe!
Great lines that gives full credit to this very special architecture, sharp fine details...

Good evening dear Angshuman-san,
I have been admiring the view for some time now. You have discovered the most delicious part of The Eiffel Tower. It is the open space below created by the presence of the tower above. The quality of the image is absolutely first rate. The farming is very creative, by shifting the framing to slightly left to avoid the symmetrical and static view. I personally WELCOME the presence of the flag that you liked so much. Friendly presence of the flag is very effective focal point in the entire composition.
With my most friendly regards,
Have a very creative week ahead, Angshuman-san
Nobu.

Hello Mr. B,
Indeed, it is a classic shot... with a fluttering flat. You had a clear day in September 2009. The stitch is imperceptible!
Warm regards,

Hi Dear Angshu,
Yes, when in Paris I would probably make a lot of photos of The Eiffel tower, as all do, but then what to post the could be original (it is so in every famous place with me). And here it is such original photo. I like the view from below, showing the construction in an excellent way. perfect symmetry, nice colours. Fantastic presentation.
Warm regards

Haha, my granddaughter (3,5 years old) like travelling and would like to see Eiffel tower)

Namaste my friend Angshuman,
the Eiffel Tower has a few very attractive shapes and offers its beautiful geometry to the photographers who can catch it, using some original visual angle, different from the classic framings.
This one is the case of your composition, which you have centred on the base of the tower by means of a stitch of two photos, which gives it a wide sight and a strong graphical effect.
I like the light, the warm tonalities and the great sharpness of the image.
It's a beautiful work.
Best wishes,
Josep

Pozdrav.
Toranj koji je najvise puta snimljen, nova fotografije je uvek nesto novo i jedinsteveno.
Vrlo interesantan snimak dela tornja, lepa fotografija.
Dobra ostrina snimka i kontrast kojim ste istakli konstrukciju tornja.
Sve najbolje u novoj nedelji koja je pocela.

Hi Angshuman,
The tight frame os putting on evidence the base of the Eiffel tower. The point of view is allowing me to see the details and colors of the architecture of the base of the Eiffel tower. The addition of the flag is an extra to the composition. Have a nice day.

Difficult to choose between your last post and this one... the discrete charm of a Mumbai misty morning and the graphism of last century technology... but just for a change from your usual Indian scene I decided for this one.
Cliché have a raison d'etre. It means that there is something special and something people like in them, so that everybody want to photograph them. But it takes some expertise and taste to reproduce them in the right way... and this is the case!
A photo where the sense of grandeur of this tower is highlighted producing a remarkable effect.
Perfectly framed IMHO.
Best compliments,
Donato

Hi Angshu,
Beautiful shot, I love it, I know what it feels like standing righ under here. It was impressive and hard to describe, you did a great job with this POV, it really show the emense size of the tower and put us right underneath it. This way you avoid all the tourists and yet still emphasize very well the scale of it. Great sharpness and clarity, good light and a prefect symetrical composition.

Hi Angshu,
I think the Eiffel Tower has been photographed millions of times, but I like to see the efforts of photographers to capture all the different POV's. Some are really original, like this one. It's the bottom of the old lady's dress. It looks like the lace petticoat :-))
Lovely tones of blacks and golds against the blue sky.
Very well realised.
Thanks for sharing. Kind regards.
