View from Eiffel Tower

This was taken from the 2nd floor of the Eiffel Tower, before my battery went flat on me!

Very nice picture. Outstandingly clear atmosphere, very nice details, and colors. I would have tried to raise luminosity over the river area tha t looks somewhat flat. Regards, Horacio

Thanks Horacio,
I'll try to do something with the river! I hadn't actually noticed that before! I think maybe if I try selectively adjusting the shadows & highlights it may help!

This is rather nice.

Although I have been to Paris a few times I have never had the pleasure due to the wait. One to put back on the list after looking at your pic. Thanks.

Barr1e it is absolutely worth the wait! The other thing I would recommend people doing as well is the Seine Riverboat cruise! The photographic opportunities are just amazing! Where possible, sit on seats outside, close as possible to front of boat! Make sure you have polarizing lens, ND grad, filters, wide angled lens & a beanbag! Lots of battery time & plenty of memory!

Re: View from Eiffel Tower

That's a great shot Jocelyn - the colours are good, and there's plenty to interest the eye.

I'd agree that it's definitely worth the wait. The day I went up it was a bit hazy, but still very enjoyable. The other thing I'd suggest is that you can walk part of the way down on the outside (but it's not for the faint hearted!)
