The Eiffel Tower - a photo on Flickriver

The Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower (French: La Tour Eiffel, [tuʁ ɛfɛl], nickname La dame de fer, the iron lady) is a puddle iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. Built in 1889, it has become both a global icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the world. The tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world – source: wikipedia

All images on this set was taken by Patrick Cheah. I only did the post processing part.

A selection of Patrick's images will appear on my stream this week while I take a short break. You will surely find them interesting and compelling as much as I do. Hope you will enjoy my selection as I post them in stages. Mr Cheah has graciously allowed me to showcase some of his shots for public viewing at my discretion.

Thank you all again for following my stream and I apologise that I am unable to keep up with so many kind comments.
