What do you think?

Quote from the website:

The Eiffel Tower, built in 1889, falls within the public domain.

Daytime views from the Eiffel Tower are rights-free.

However, its various illuminations are subject to author’s rights as well as brand rights. Professional or commercial use of these images is subject to prior request from the "Société d’Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel" (the Eiffel Tower’s operating company, or SETE).

The citation "Eiffel Tower", the names of the various services offered on the monument as well as domain names are also registered.

I am not a professional photographer and never sold a photo in my life. So I can do whatever I want as long as continue to not sell them

But did bring a smile on my face

Personally I feel that if they insist on forcing their "Art" in to my eye-line then it's fair game. Anything that is in plain view should not be copyright, this "arty" concept is a complete load of testicles.

Great photos by the way.
