The Arc de Triomphe is a monument in Paris standing in the centre of the Place Charles de Gaulle,honouring those who fought for France, particularly during the Napoleonic Wars, and today also includes the tomb of the unknown soldier. It stands over 51 meters (165 ft) in height and is 45 meters wide. The size of the tourists on top give some idea of its enormity.. .Kodak V550.. Thank you for taking a look.Any comments are most welcome and always appreciated.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Like the angle and you're right about tourists giving sense of size of monument. Like the sign which places it without interferring. Great coloring and information. Nice post.

I'll meet you at the edge of the sunlight, just behind the shadows. The Ghost
Great shot, Lyn, with excellent contrast. This would look good in b/w too, I reckon.

A great landmark. You have captured it with great detail and clarity, Eve.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
- Hermes
Well done, Eve. I hope to be able to see it myself someday. The details you've picked out in this are amazingly clear.

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
Beautiful shot Lyn. I like the composition and presentation very much.
