The tower, from a bus
I am no expert on French law, but just in case this taking this totally clichéd shot of the Eiffel Tower was some kind of legal requirement, I went ahead and made it. Because ending up in jail would be a crappy way to spend a vacation.
Oh, and also because it really did look pretty cool.

I don’t actually. And would sort of like to keep it that way.

Agreed. Pretty cool. How does that go … better to ask forgiveness than permission.

Yes, that IS how it goes!

I, for one, have never seen a photograph of the tower from this perspective while the photographer was in a bus, so not at all a cliché to me and quite a pleasing sight. If you ever get arrested for not shooting a standard perspective wire us for funds.

I will certainly wire you right away, should I need bail money. There’s a chance you have created a monster with that offer, so please let me know if, upon further consideration, you need to withdraw it.

Telling you to wire and actually sending it…the jury’s in deliberation.

You make an excellent point, and obviously I assumed a little too much…
