Hide and seek with the Eiffel Tower!


I went to the Cité de l'architecture & du patrimoine, a superb musuem dedicated to architecture, to attend a temporary exhibit about Henri Labrouste, a leading architect who got famous in the 1800's. The exhibit was great (I love architecture) and I learned a lot of things, thanks to the guide who gave us a tour. This museum is located at place du Trocadero and on the way out, I could not help but taking a "stolen" photo of the Eiffel Tower, from inside the museum. I kinda like it ;-)

  3. All of your pictures of the Eiffle Tower have their own personalities. I guess that is what the symbiosis is between a wonderful photographer and model

  5. I didn't think it was possible to find an entirely new view of La Tour, but you've done it!

  6. I love this view of the Eiffel Tower, too. You could do a collection or calendar of different views of the Eiffel (or perhaps you've already done that)....

  7. Stunning! AN ET calendar would be so amazing. I've missed posting. Been tooooo busy, but, I check in every day and remain ever grateful to Eric for his diligence, talent and generosity and always love seeing what everyone has to say.

  8. This is a great picture. The large expanse of yellowish concrete on the left gives it an incredible modern feel. I also enjoy the overlapping of elements in here, very urban.

    Thank you for talking about that museum, Eric, I'll give it a major spot in my to-do-list for the next trip to Paris. For my next trip is going to be Paris ( Yes, Paris, again, and again, but never enough ).

  13. How lovely!! And ETSuzy said it so well: Eiffel Tower!!!!

    I have to admit that a perpetual calender of all the ET pictures would be an awesome thing! (One that I could hang on my wall and it would never have to come down :) )

  14. Color Calendar shot! Would be a great one for a cover of a book, too, with space for titles and such. I love the way the lines on the columns draw my eye around the shot. It really works!
