Eiffel Tower

I enjoyed getting this photo yesterday. I saw a similar image to this on an instagram account, (taken from a very different angle though) and thought it was a cool idea for a shot of the Eiffel Tower. Knowing how short the Tulip Magnolia season is, I went into Paris yesterday to find the right spot. It turns out there is just the ONE tree like this in the whole area around the Tower. So, I headed over, to find a photographer already in prime position. Not to be thwarted, I bided my time, waited it out, and eventually got the photo I wanted. The things you do for a photograph! Better on black, naturally.
