France Eiffel Tower view from the street, Paris

This is a street that only a few Parisians know. It is located in the 16-th arrondissement of Paris and there is an amazing view of La Tour Eiffel there.

The best is to be on a tripod and to have a 24mm lens with you - not too wide so that there are fewer distractions but still wide enough for the dynamic scene. The dynamic range of the scene can be massive because the street itself is located in a shade so here is a good tip: shoot HDR - 3 exposures for your highlights, middle tones and shadows. Then just blend the two using Photoshop or Lightroom. This way you will get all the details which are beautiful if you come during the sunset.
As always suggest the students come to locations 1 hour early - this way you will have time to prepare and to find your perfect composition. When it comes to photography, rushing is not needed at all.

Alternatively, you can wait for the moment when the city lights turn on - this location would be perfect for that as well as there is an amazing lamp in the foreground. In any case, don't forget to check your focus and shoot Raw + HDR. Have Fun! :)

The closest to this location metro station is Passy, then there is a 5-minute walk, a rather enjoyable one.
