 I did a pseudo-HDR post-processing on this in photomatix. This brought out a lot more detail in the sky than there appeared to be at first (in the original) including the light rays coming down the left side of the Eiffel Tower.

In the style of Dudski. Very nice capture and processing although the sky is a bit blown (though not all that distracting) and the top of the tower could use a bit more definition as it blends tonally to closely with the sky. This has a surreal quality to it that I like very much.

Nice composition with the Eiffel Tower in the background and the people in the foreground. Interesting processing, has a very "stylized" postcard quality.

Beautiful production, but seems a triumph of processing over content? Hmmm. Tricky!

Need to have more contrast/light. It's hard to pick the people out of the background.
