Kudos for climbing the spiral stair! Did not see that gargoyle for up close in 15 years. Well done

Would have scored this higher if it weren't for the strange blur on the sky, especially around the top of the tower and the gull - looks like excessive noise-reduction or some other effect gone wrong.

Really like the mist/cloud starting to obscure the tip.

Classic landmark, with a slightly different perspective. The gull is great.

Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that meets the challenge

Another lovely landscape Janine, the lighting has separated the golden foliage nicely to make it stand out. It would have made it even better if we could have seen more of the foliage in the reflection by removing the immediate foreground and a lower viewpoint. I have to agree with glad’s comments about sharpness there is a lack of it, its only that immediate foreground that does appear sharp which is probably why it is rather more forceful than is desirable. Having said all that the composition is good and generally a very capable image.

You really captured the spirit of the Trocadero sur la pluie!
