Photographer's Note
The Passerelle Debilly is an arch bridge situated in Paris bestriding the Seine. It is a footbridge that connects the quai de New York to the quai Branly, close to the Eiffel Tower.
In order to accommodate visitor traffic to the 1900 World's Fair across the Seine, the General Commissioner of the Exposition, Alfred Picard, approved the construction of a provisional footbridge opposite the Avenue Albert de Mun, to join the Army and Navy Halls to the exhibit recreating old Paris. Its architect, Jean Résal, also designed the Pont Alexandre III and the Viaduc d'Austerlitz. Source: Wikipedia

Ciao Gosia
l'icona parigina fotografata con originalità e maestria.
Eccellente l'esposizione e originale la composizione, prevalgono le strutture metalliche come se messe a confronto, due architetture che hanno dato vita all'epoca moderna, innovative e geniali.
Buona domenica

Hi Gosia
Both these structures where supposed to be temporary and Eiffel tower became symbol of Paris! (Debilly passerelle is much less famous of course!)
You have excellent clarity and sharpness without tripod! The relatively high ISO is well handled with no obvious noise.
Excellebt job
Regards (from Paris!)

Hello Gosia,
A perfectly executed night time composition. Cleverly composed and ideally exposed. The graphical lines of the bridge mirror those of the Eiffel Tower. Very good colours and clarity. You have a good steady hand.

Hello Gosia,
You're capturing well this cityscape by a good angle and very excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see the Truss bridge on the Seine and Eiffel Tower in blue hour. The whole is harmonized well by a good arrangement and beautiful color combination.
Kind regards,

Witaj dear Gosia
I have never seen the wonderful icon from this angle before. The nocturnal / Blue HOur shot is exquisite and everything is perfectly sharp and well exposed. Stunning sharpness on the Tower and the graphism and perspective of the bridge adds another very compelling element.
Thanks for sharing, warmest wishes

Hello Gosia,
Lovely light and colours. The image has a nice balance of graphics and colour while showing us the bridge and the Eiffel Tower together. Excellent clarity and sharpness given that the camera was hand held at 1/5 sec exposure.

Hi Gosia,
It is never easy to create a new image of an icon like this, but you have succeeded so well here. The tower places perfectly on thirds with its sharp points of light looks fantastic of course, and a brilliant idea to add depth and differentiation to the scene by placing the bridge this way. Very nicely considered picture and result.
Thanks as always

Howdy Siudzi,
Attractive Paris night view with the silver lighting on the pedestrian arched bridge and the golden lit Eifel Tower.
In California we rarely design foot bridges this wide, perhaps to avoid our Wackos from driving their cars across!?
Thanks for sharing,
Cheers,
Ray

Wonderful blue hour shot with perfect sharpness and an attractive composition and colour combinations.

Hello Gosia,
I like how you left the Eiffel tower in the background and allowed us to enjoy the elegant curve of the bridge as the main feature. The tower almost steals the show anyway, but a straightforward photo of it would have been rather boring. Now all the architectural elements play joufully together. The light is great too.
Greetings from Poznan,

Hola Gosia.
Esplendida esta imagen nocturna, con la torre luciendo una preciosa iluminacion dorada, el puente en primer plano da un bonito contraste y grafismo a la composicion.Hi Gosia.
Splendid this nighttime image, with the tower wearing a beautiful golden lighting, the bridge in the foreground gives a nice contrast to the composition and graphics.
A superb range of night color.
Good management of the brightness and sharpness.
Splendid image. My compliments.
Have a happy day.
Best wishes.

Hello Gosia,
You really had the eye for this one ! Amazing viewpoint and perspective of this so many times photographed monument. Congratulations for finding an unusual and original way to shoot the Eiffel tower and realize this superb composition. Even the beautifully lit iron bridge could not steal the show from this Old Lady ! A great blue hour shot with excellent light management.
Kind regars,

Hello Gosia,
You have bought two symbols of Paris together in a super night time shot. The colours and sharpness are first class. I love the moody shades of blue and purple in the sky with the golden light of the tower.
Excellent.

Hello Gosia,
You have written a very interesting and informative note and given us a stunning photograph with which to illustrate it.
Your timing of this shot was perfect as there is just the perfect combination of natural and artificial light. Your composition is delightful too with the iconic Eiffel Tower perfectly placed in the frame, the strong lines of the curvature of the structure of the bridge well placed, and a fine "lead in" from the fence appearing from bottom right.
Glorious light and lovely vibrant colours, perfect exposure and exquisite details and sharpness, especially when viewed at its full size of 1200 pixels wide.
Beautiful!
Kind Regards,
John.

Good evening Gosia,
Excelent light and clarity managed, the Paris monuments appering vivid and shining on the night scene.
Good display of multi-tones, green and blue yellow/gold and white illuminated iron structure - no an easy task to do at night shots.
Fine photojob, my cong.s'.

Cześć Gosia,
Jestem pod wielkim wrażeniem Twojej galerii. Piękne kompozycje, intensywne barwy, niewiarygodnie ostre zdjęcia. Trudno wybrać coś do skomentowania. Za duży wybór ;).
Rewelacyjnie uchwycony promień na szczycie wieży. Całość pięknie gra...
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
