France Eiffel Tower, Paris
A great spot for night photography, especially if it is such a cloudy night like the one on the picture. I went there on New Year's Eve and I was searching for a nice spot to capture the fireworks. The spot was pretty nice, but there was no fireworks at the Eiffel Tower, only this lighting of the tower, which is copyrighted by SETE – illuminations Pierre Bideau.

Puddles are a great way to give your photo a little bit more of dimension and complexity, especially when you are only shooting the Eiffel Tower without the surroundings.
Try to take advantage of the presence of trees to frame the tower in this way with a wide angle lens.
Take a walk around an try different angles.
