On a cloudy day at sunset as I waited for the tower to light from across the Seine the sky turned blue as the tower lit up to create this surreal photo.

The colors are mostly untouched with some tone adjustments as it was getting dark. The sky cleared just enough to brighten the scene and leave this cobalt blue image. I dreaded the cloudy day but in the end it gave me this wonderful gift. Waiting for over an hour was worth every minute.

    Thank you. It's one of those photos where things just went right. I am quite proud of it. A bit of luck on the evening's weather and a lot of patience waiting for the light.
