Loved these all around Paris. Finally going back to my travel photos. Hope to do more over the holidays. Top of Arc de Triomphe. Best on Black. :)
Are these real telescopes? Very ornate and beautiful - bet they are well grounded!

I like the way you've processed this, the sharp, clear presentation really suits the subject.

I love glamour shots of highly maintained tools that were designed with both form and function in mind. Excellent & Fav for this weapon of vast diffraction :)

Now that's what I call a howitzer!! Happy Christmas, Daryl.

@jamibann Eiffel tower has them too! They are really beautiful ways of making a typical feature on a tourist attraction shine! Aidan took much better shots of these than I did, so I have to credit her with the inspiration!

@jgpittenger They are everywhere and really stunning! When I was at the Tour Eiffel, I was holding onto one in the rain and feeling like I might get windswept into the EuroCup Zone below! ha!

@fotoblah Many thanks! They are really impressive.

@maggiemae Yes, indeed! A twist on the ugly versions on every tourist attraction across the globe!

@laroque Thank you Tim! My daughter took much better versions here and at Tour Eiffel!

@graemestevens They are!

@danette Thanks! I have some others too, but I loved how the thing itsself was in good focus (something I struggle with these days given my bad eyesight and reliance on auto focus!).

woah! this just jumped out when I clicked on your album.

Welcome back to posting! Can't wait to see these -- and in this one, I do like the strong sculptural and industrial feel to it.

@taffy I've been posting in my Starting Fresh Album more than here. Trying to keep this album about travels:) This album is so off time wise! Can't believe I'll see you soon!
