hello jean claude
une belle lumi鑽e douce sur ce bloc de gratte ciels en front de seine, belle perspective sur la tour Eiffel, mais � mon go皦 ce qui fait la diff駻ence ici c'est le hors bord et son sillage qui guident parfaitement nos yeux pour d馗ouvrir la sc鈩e
Bien vu et fait
Bonne soir馥, amicalement

Hello Jean-Claude,
To me a surprising and certainly a very original view of Paris.
Without the Eiffel Tower I wouldn't have guessed which city this was.
Best regards, Paul

Bonjour JC ,
La diagonale du bateau et son sillage apportent beaucoup de dynamisme � cette vue seraine du front de Seine moderne avec la Tour en fond de Perspective .

Bonjour Jean Claude,

Well, from the thumbnail, I did not guess that this was Paris! Certainly the Eiffel Tower is the big clue but that was not so prominent small size!
This is an exciting new view!
The skyscrapers reveal the city status, with the speed boat acting as a most effective guide along them. The Eiffel Tower is a focal point, strongly placed and making a splendid statement against the pale sky.

Thank you for sharing this, I have enjoyed it very much, Bev :-)

Hello Jean Claude,
This photo makes me think of the movie Play Time by Jacques Tati, taking place in a very modern Paris looking exactly like every other modern city. The only hints of location were occasional glimpses of the Eiffel Tower or some other Parisian landmark reflected in glass dors swinging open. Here too the Eiffel tower is the only building I can recognize. This less seen angle makes this photo very attractive to me, plus the speedboat rushing along, leaving its long tracks behind it. I find it an original photo and the light is excellent.
Kind regards,
Gert

Bonjour Claude,
C'est une photo tr鑚 int駻essante � tous points de vue que tu nous pr駸entes ici. Il y a bien s皞 la perspective amen馥 par le sillon du canot parall鑞e au quai et aux b穰iments qui emm鈩e le regard vers la tour Eiffel et cr馥 une dynamique dans l'image. Et puis il y a ce contraste historique entre la tour Eiffel et les tours d'immeubles qu'un si鐵le s駱are. Enfin, je d馗ouvre sur la gauche de l'image une statue de la libert� que je ne savais pas � cet endroit (je connaissais celle du jardin du Luxembourg). Tr鑚 belle luminosit� sur l'ensemble de la sc鈩e (et de la Seine !).
Amicalement,
Christian

Howdy Jean,

Attractive Paris waterfront view with dominating glass reflecting sun light, leading into the iconic Eiffel Tower, and late lighting enhances.

Good job,
Cheers,
Ray

Hello Jean Claude - not a very common look at Paris, certainly! The Eiffel Tower is a necessary element here, as is the speedboat which reinforces the line of view. Very nice light and great perspective. Thanks!

Bonsoir Jean claude

Belle perspective sur la Tour Eiffel et ces 馘ifices modernes en bord de Seine. La pr駸ence du bateau ajoute � la composition. Bien fait.

Hi Jean Claude,
The wake from the speeding boat adds a good diagonal line which leads the eye to the famous tower far away. Very attractive and interesting architecture along the river here.
Kind regards
Gunnar
