Eiffel Twins

Last weekend I visited Paris. I also tried some experimental photo, like this one of Paris's most famous landmark: La Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower). I deliberately moved the camera in the hope of getting an interesting result. This one I liked most.

La Tour Eiffel is 324m (1,063ft) tall (antenna included) and 1889-1930 the tallest building in the world, it's designed by Gustave Eiffel and built in connection with the 1889 World Fair in Paris. Visited by more than 6,7 million people in 2006, it's the most visited paid monument in the world. It's located beside the river Seine on the Champs de Mars.

Hope you like this photo!

Hoi Lars,
Bijzonder PP-werk, spreekt mij wel aan, je hebt de Eiffel toren toch op een heel eigenwijze vastgelegd. De 'gouden' kleur is erg sprekend. Mooi werk man!
Hans

Bonjour Lars
La tour Eiffel a le vertige,une image originale de ce monument mille fois photographié.Bravo et bonne soirée.
Amicalement

Hei Lars,
What would Gustave Eiffel say to this, hehehe!
Maybe he'd applaud your creativity, he would for sure be impressed by the possibilities of modern photography!
Greetings,

Hi Lars, superb movie effect with splendid colors and wonderful light, great work, very well done, have a great week end, ciao Silvio

Hallo Lars,
Toch teveel gedronken? Mooie wiebelende Eiffeltoren. Leuke tip van Hendrika, maar ik zou een scherpe overdag toren met b.v. een sappig groen kleurtje ertussen hebben gezet.
groet Rob

Interesting idea, Lars. And the result is splendid. I like the WS version, too.
Best wishes,
Ramdan

Lars, Keep up the terrific work! I like this version of the Eiffel tower. It reminds me of a toy that is rocking back and forth. All of the bright colors, contrasts, lines, patterns, all provide visual interest to your photo. You should create a book of "rockin' landmarks"! hehe

tfs, Lisa

prachtig Lars..
Zo heb ik de eiffeltoren nog niet bekeken..

Leuk he Lars om te spelen, kan je wel op TL.

Ik denk dat ik bovenop deze twee nog ééntje loeischerp had geplakt -in het midden. Maar ja, dan had je met een statief moeten sjouwen - loopt toch wat ongemakkelijk.

Groetjes

Het is inderdaad een bijzonder leuk experiment te noemen, Lars. En bijster geslaagd ook. Goed dat je niet te lang hebt belicht, want nu is de kleur van de lucht nog lekker diepzwart. Mooi!
TFS

Hi, Lars!

Excellent photo with wonderful colours!

Ildiko

Hoi Lars,

Je experiment is gelukt zou ik zo zeggen, wat een mooi gezicht deze "eifeltwins" :-)
Zo heb ik de eifeltoren nog nooit gezien, en ik vind dit een mooie en aparte foto.
Goed gedaan!

Groetjes, Nel

Hey Lars!

Fancy seeing you here!

This is a great idea and I love the result! I like how you have obviously moved your camera but you can still make out detail of the tower!

Very well done!

Blair
