Nice shot(s)! Looks like you've got a bit of barrel distortion going on with the river/wall..?

I think its the natural curve of the waterway.

 

[TalkePhotography]

That would be some severe distortion! LOL

Very nice.... just a tad more headroom and less on the bottom would totally make the shot!

Here's my shot from a while back........

I agree but it is still a great shot!

Very nice. With the final HDR image, how many did you use to combine? Did you take it with a tripod?

I am going to Paris next week...any tips and places would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

5 exposures...hand held!

 

[Terri French]

Nice blend. You did great. The colors look especially pretty.

This is a great shot, and I really like the way you did your HDR; it's not overdone and you've blended very nicely.

However, is it me or does Notre Dame appear to be leaning backwards? Or...were you leaning back when you took the shot?

 

[TalkePhotography]

Not sure...probably leaning back so I didnt fall in the river! LOL I cropped it a bit and put it on my travel blog site...looks a tad bit better?

I guess a little bit of Edit>Transform>Distort in Photoshop took care of the verticals AND of the strange "distortion" on the river' wall !

No "Lens Correction", only "Edit>Transform>Distort" !

Version 2...this one a bit better?

That's much better, but IMO there is still a bit of slant ! Nothing serious: a little bit of SKEW (W=102.7% - H= 2.3°) will cure it !

I'm just nitpicking...

i agree with the statement about more headroom. looks great though.
