Here is a photo I shot during an amazing and magical night in Paris from the Observation Deck on the Tour Montparnasse. You can see the major tourists locations such as La Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower), Les Invalides and some massive parisian avenues. The best place for photography in Paris !

Photography Tips

Come with a good wide-angle lens and a tripod. I was using my 16-35mm lens and the experience was phenomenal! Also, I suggest you come an hour before the sunset as the place can be busy with other photographers so you want to secure your spot. There is a small hole between windows that you can shot through.
Also, try to underexpose your RAW files - this way you will get some awesome details in the highlight after post-processing. And try to use the shutter speed of around 5 seconds to have the cars transform into light trails.

Travel Information

The best way to get to Tour Montparnasse is by Metro. The station is called after the tour (or the other way around) - Montparnasse. The ticket is about 15 euros but it is totally worth it as that is one of the best locations in Paris for cityscape photography in my opinion, if not one of the best on the planet. There are lots of people and you need to avoid moving your tripod. Be respectful, kind, and have fun!
