Thank you John,Arne, have you considered presenting this image as a bw?
Lovely, Patrick.On the last full day in Paris in January, 2020, I took this overdone viewpoint of the Eiffel Tower, but feel the ghostly figures in the foreground add a sense of mystery the the image. All in all, we spent two weeks in Paris at the end of December and the first part of January and got very lucky with only one day of rain, but cold weather. This was the first time I had a tripod in Paris and used it almost every day inside and out and never was told it wasn't allowed, must have had something to do with the time of year.

Thanks for looking.
I love perspective correction, but it’s easy to lose the lower corners, and I have to be sure they’ll be in the corrected image. It’s worse (terrible) with ultrawides, like the GF 23 or (yikes!) the Laowa 17.Thanks Matt, I used the perspective correction from both Lightroom and Photoshop. I hope the shift police won't be coming after me now.
Stunningly beautiful and all the more so for the movement of the people/ghosts in the shot - one of the best examples of this view I've seen.On the last full day in Paris in January, 2020, I took this overdone viewpoint of the Eiffel Tower, but feel the ghostly figures in the foreground add a sense of mystery the the image.

Lovely images Patrick. How fortunate to have your trip just before the world changed. January is a great time to visit Paris. Crowds are virtually non-existent. Attached is a picture taken inside the Louvre from some time ago; quite a contrast to the summer months.
