I had to add so much noise to the sky here, just to get rid of as much color banding as I could. The lights in the Eiffel tower create quite a strong glow around it, especially with low clouds as there were the evening I took this. I could see the color banding already on the camera screen. It would be so nice if we finally moved to 16-bit images, and of course 16-bit screen, to get rid of this, and make pictures looking so much better.

This is a two shot vertorama, with two additional shots used to darken few highlights on the tower.
