this is one of the best Eiffel tower shots I've ever seen... It is almost better than in reality ;-)

I like the two tones, black, for the persons, and grey, for the tower ! Great !
Florian @ 2007-04-16 20:35:21
Very nice this one. Love the contrast fading out to the top.

classic shot - 50s-touch. really impressive.

very romantic and old fashioned looking. A reminiscence to the old school of french photography. I like this very much, the silhouettes of people and the dusty tower.
grapf @ 2007-04-16 22:03:46
very nice capture, great fog and b&w tones, people looks great

May be the most photographed building in the world, but you bring a new eye on it (ouch ! my poor english !). Very nice backlight shot !

A strong sense of definitive distance between the populous of people in the foregound and the tower itself. It's a grand composition.

Nice shot of the eiffeltower, was it foggy or is it processed like that?

Yes, photographed millions of times of course but you have done this very well Maarten. The tonal range is exceptionally well worked out and the simple composition suits it perfectly. I agree with austriaka.

wonderful processing. Great b&w image. Very creative choice of making the tower lighter than the people in front. A nice twist to a cliche'd icon. nice job.

Lud@ @ 2007-05-07 00:35:12
Even if the eiffeltower has been shoot many times, this still feels like a good capture. A bit oldschool from the filmdays.

The weather was great, the city amazing AND... I took too many pictures !
I'm starting off with a picture of the Eiffel Tower (you saw this coming, didn't you ;-) )

The image was shot in color JPEG, converted to B&W with Lightroom and some extra contrast + saved for the web with Photoshop.

Thanks for all your comments on the previous images !
