UNIQUE VIEW OF THE EIFFEL TOWER

In this beautiful shot by famous travel photographer Trey Ratcliff, we see a unique view of the Eiffel Tower on a lovely summer day in Paris. While photos of the iconic monument are quite common, I’m always drawn to photos that capture popular places in a fresh way. As Trey explains:
“I made it over to the Eiffel Tower for a big night of shooting, and arrived there just as the sun was setting. I have a few little special spots I like to visit around the tower that are not full of tourists and the like. This shot looks much more delicate, perhaps, than I did while achieving it. Unfortunately, this was one of those tricky ones where the tripod legs were splayed out like a flattened armadillo. I looked beyond redonkulous while taking it… Trey’s Tip: If the only interesting feature nearby is on the ground, well then you better get on the ground too. Get down and get dirty! People don’t like you for your clean pants anyway.”
