Pictures of the Eiffel Tower - Share Yours
Pictures of the Eiffel Tower. When we visited Paris, this icon was probably in the majority of our photos. Share your favorite photos below.
From the
Arc de Triomphe
We had shots from our first glimpse, from across the Seine river, from underneath, from across the park, from the Ecole Militaire, from the top of the Arc de Triomphe, at night, in the day while on a segway, shots of it alone, shots of how many people were trying to go and see it, shots of us in front of it.... You get the point.
There were people everywhere taking pictures. There were even photos and artworks to buy in every tourist and art shop we went by. There were postcards, books and table place mats of the Eiffel Tower.
We even realized that on our little point and shoot camera (that we bought in Canada), the icon to represent a "night shot" was a cartoon person with the moon and the Eiffel Tower.
As I was writing the Facts about the Eiffel Tower page, I thought, I bet it is the most recognized landmark in the world and I bet it is one of the most photographed icons in the world.
Apparently my hunch was right. As I did some research on this, I found an article about a study done on Flickr.com. This icon ranks in the top seven most photographed landmarks, including Trafalgar Square, Big Ben, Notre Dame and the Empire State Building.
Regardless, everyone has a favorite photo of the Tower. I have never, nor will I ever claim to be a photographer, but I have a favorite. Mainly because I think it turned out well and it reminds me of one of our favorite parts of our trip to Paris.
