Theme Day: The Tenin Technique

We don't have the Eiffel Tower but we do have the Tribune Tower.  It is shown here in homage to Eric Tenin of Paris Daily Photo.  He is known for shooting objects on the diagonal and for placing his camera on the ground.  As others have noted, it was 5 years ago today that Eric started posting daily photos of his beautiful city.  The concept captured people's imagination and the City Daily Photo community began.  Today more than 1100 bloggers post daily photos of their city.  Why not join us?   Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

    Well, Eric will be Eric but this picture stands on its own merits.The angle works well but the thing I really like about it is how you got it to resemble a burning torch. Ironic, since your city experienced the Great Fire not that many years ago.

    Wow, this is beautiful. I especially like how the wind has caught the flag at the very top. Nice take on the theme.

    Great shot, wonderful tribute to Eric and the daily photo world. I've been enjoying your site, I used to live in Alameda, it's fun to look at some familiar places.
