Tour Eiffel II Photo

Photographer’s Note

Can I really post yet another shot of this thing. Well, sorry, yes, and it's the last of my current set from Paris, which were all second thoughts. Taken from the top of Galleries Lafayette. There's some far better shots to be had up there, but all mine were flawed in some way.

hi richard,
now worry, there will never be enough shots of the tower i guess;
and this one is most beautiful, against the sunset sky, well composed with the thing in 1/3;
well, no complains about this one;
have a nice weekend,
jerzy

Hi Richard,
What a beautiful silhouette of the Eiffel tower against the fantastic sky, you placed the tower very well near left, a totally other image than usual of the Eiffel tower, I like the splendid sky with the sunset.
Have a nice weekend,
John.

Hey there Richard,

a magnificent view on Paris. The sky is great, those warm colors and that light, which is so well exposed. The tower looks like a great big monster towering over the cuty. I like the compositional choice of putting the tower so far to the left.

Good morning Richard,
looks like up,up in the sky...
I think, the silhouette of Madame la Tour works pefectly against this sky and off centered!

hey richard

i like this shot. it appeals to my sense of lines and space. it's a good photograph. i'm not really happy with the framing though. i think the frame is too big, something wider but not taller would have been better.

your concept is great, so i've workshopped a variation.
