Weekly Travel Theme: Up!
This is the closest I ever got to the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
I still hope to get on it one day, it is on my list of sights to see in Paris.
Being lazy I did not try to find a place where I could frame the whole tower in one shot.
So I shot four separate ones and stitched them together.
The blog ‘Where is my backpack’ organizes a weekly travel theme.
This week it is ‘up‘. I still have to get up there 
France, Paris – August 1981

Great photo, and great idea to stitch your shots together!
Well it was just me being lazy actually. Putting it in a album as prints I stitched them. Working digital makes that much easier! If I would have had a wide angle I would have used it for sure
I only had a 50 mm standard. Ty for your comment!
Great angle. It really conveys the height of the tower.
Thank you! Using a standard 50 mm did give this result. I like the way it worked out!
Great job, Chris.
Thank you for your kind words!

Thank you for your kind words
I really like the way you have edited this.
Thank you! I just had four pictures and used an App to stitch them. The gave the a run in Snapseed. I am happy you like the result!
Yes, I had seen that you did the stitching. That is something that I haven’t tried. It creates a nice effect for this photo.
In this picture it adds something to it, I agree.
Great shot! Pentax ME Super was my first real camera!
Thank you! It was my second one till the shutter broke down a few times and I switched to Nikon
