Another terrific finish! I never get tired of the Eiffel Tower, and this one with the beautiful composition is terrific. I really like this one because there is more context than the usual Tower shots. Hope you had fun in Paris.

I really like this shot because it isn't the "atypical" Eiffel Tower photo. Lining it up from the building with the statues and the way the lighting is similiar on them and the tower makes this a unique photo of an oft-photographed subject.
