The longest birthday
The Eiffel Tower is 120 years old. Not bad for a structure that was not supposed to be dismantled after twenty years. To give it a proper celebration, a special lightning show made of 120′ooo bulbs was shown every night during the last three months. Last night was the last representation of that long birthday so thousands gathered for a last look and to welcome the New Year. Some even managed to get some intimitacy among the crowd.

Wow, Yannick, I’ve never seen the 35 Summilux ASPH do purple fringing like that! A lens element must be loose. Send it back to Solms.
Happy birthday, Tour Eiffel!

At first I was worried when I read your comment, than I realized which picture you were talking about.
