Très joli, cher Christian! Et les trois symbols semblent être très légers et élégants en même temps! Amitiés Frnz

Fun thing, I was there on Aug 8th and and saw all most the same shot! The tower I am told is always hazy. Better version in my portfolio.

Good idea to put them together and technically very good too, although the tower looks a bit out of place. It needed abit more sharpness/contrast.

Three eras, one symbol - quite amusing :-) I can see the slight lack of focus on the rightmost element, and it acts as something of a visual riddle, the reason being that with the given composition, the side elements appear to be at roughly the same distance from the camera (no haze effect as with the Eifel tower). Nice work.

Thanks again Hugo. It was a very hot and humid day in mid-afetrnoon. The air was almost greyish at a distance, as the original shows. I did have to lighten and boost the colours. I selectively retouched the blue curve. The rightmost element is a tad out of focus as a matter of fact. F 8 was not enough to cover that distance, but I wanted to have a very fast speed as this was handlheld and I was shacking a bit from heat exhaustion. I have another one similar but only with the obelisk and the tower. Both are in focus, but I liked this one better for it's triadic composition.

Hi Christian, Very creative shot, and a well balanced composition. The distance cue creates a very strong sence of depth between the three landmarks, but does also make the photo appear a bit soft (not soft focus, though, just in the saturation and tones). I played around a bit in PS, but it clearly shows that distance cue is essential to the shot. "reviving" the colours only flattens the photo, so it's not an option.
The slight overlap between the eifel tower and the obilisk is a bit distracting.
Nonetheless a very strong image, showing the grandeur of Paris by only capturing three elements. Very strong image.
Cheers,
Hugo
