THE PHOTO:
Zoomed shot of the Eiffel Tower, with a Pigeon enjoying the view – taken from the Basilique du Sacré-Cœur (see earlier wider shot).

POST-PROCESSING:
A fair bit of recovery went into bringing some contrast to the washed-out sky and skyline, monochrome (with tint), sharpness, cropping and curves/levels.

OTHER:
If you’re following along by RSS (or any other method), I’m preparing you in advance that I have a bunch of Eiffel/Louvre shots remaining from my trip to Paris earlier this year. I’ll be updating the site daily to try and get through them – hopefully, you’ll enjoy the shots, but the theme might get boring quick…
