Tour Eiffel II


I hope the few people who follow this blog don't mind the Eiffel Tower because I fear I may end up posting several images of it. It is such a prominent landmark it was easy to keep letting myself be drawn to it visually. I still have more film to develop so I'm sure I will end up with with more. Funny that the Parisians initially were skeptical about it and wanted to tear it down only for it to be saved due to it use as a very effective radio antenna. Hitler even ordered it to be torn down when the Germans occupied Paris during World War II. (Luckily not all of his ordered were obeyed) Now it would be hard to imagine Paris without it.

Tour Eiffel


One of my favorite classroom settings ever. I took a group of our study abroad students out for a sunset at this spot and had lessons about exposure and mixing ambient and natural lighting while photographing architecture and cityscapes. I am the teacher who feels that being in a traditional classroom is the least effective place to learn. Viva la France!
