I took this on an elevator ride to the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. I used a little Samsung point and shoot camera and wound up with about 15 of these shots - some blurred and fuzzy, and a few that were fun to edit and then look at.
I'd just finished Edward Rutheford's book, Paris, the Novel, and a big part of the plot line was about the men who constructed this iconic monument. And when I wasn't snapping pictures, I was eying the way all of the pieces of this huge Erector Set fit together. On all of my trips to Paris, this was the first time that I ever did the tourist thing and rode to the very top. I loved it!
