thanks to everyone else, it was a tough choice.

but who takes photos of plastic Eiffel Towers?

Jean Paul Goude...



Good thing he’s not entering this contest...

Here’s my vote:

3 points Halo- 1. Totally quirky, just like Attila wanted. A little humor does you good!

2 points Hériklès - 2. A little statue as a souvenir?

1 point Mamina64 - 3. Great catch with that reflection...

I saw some nice things, but nothing unforgettable... It's not easy to step off the beaten path of the postcard clichés! So I favored humor, originality, or quirkiness over technique or aesthetics.

Halo, photo 1, 3 points. Well spotted! But I might have overdone the staging a bit... even if it meant staying in my kitchen 😉

Bijoliane, photo 1, 2 points For the originality of the shot. This Festival of Lights offers tons of opportunities to take some really cool photos. Still, you need to be a bit equipped.

Pepitota, photo 2, 1 point You can't see much, but you recognize it—it's hilarious, I love it!

Also worth mentioning: Ambre216 1, Dolma 1, Fredisdead 1, Herikles 2, Lahaut 1, Mamina64 3, Nilsou 1,

What gorgeous photos! 😉

So here’s my vote: 3 points to Rawe, photo 2 2 points to nosferatu75, photo 1 1 point to baroud35, photo 2

Here’s my vote:

🙂🙂🙂 : Nickk78 - Photo No. 1 🙂🙂 : Pathoch - Photo No. 3 🙂 : Portobello - Photo No. 3

I hesitated a lot before making up my mind, given all the interesting photos... In the end, my top picks are night shots—probably just a coincidence.

Photo No. 1: Xyer 1 : 3 pts: A stunning presentation that really highlights these towers. The low-angle shot makes them look even more impressive, and the slight distortion on the sides frames the focal point of the image—the central towers—perfectly. Sharpness and lighting in the dark night are spot-on. Bravo!

Photo No. 2: Rawe 1 : 2 pts: These buildings are astonishing and magnificent. The framing with the people gives a great sense of scale to the monument, and the colorful tones create a lovely effect.

Photo No. 3: Bijolane 1 : 1 pt: The light projections on this façade produce a very original and dynamic result. Really interesting outcome.

My vote this month is heavily influenced by the symbolic significance of the following photos:

1. 3 points for Eversmile 2: Fraternity 2. 2 points for Raga 2: Freedom 3. 1 point for Nilsou 3: ...uh, some nice colors, that's all! (for the meaning)

My vote:

So hard to choose between Ambre 3, Azobader 1, Pepitola 2, Kanibé 3, Eversmile 2, Catherine Gil 1, Jemaflor 2, Lahaut 1, Nilsous3, and so many others! Bravo to everyone!
