This line nails the core of what makes the Eiffel Tower's nighttime photo restrictions so intriguing.

It’s a tricky dance between honoring the rights of creators and allowing people to engage with public landmarks fully.

Most of us don’t think twice about snapping photos of monuments, so the idea that creative elements, like lighting, can alter the rules adds a whole new layer to travel photography.

It raises some big questions too: Should we draw a line between public spaces and artistic rights, or is this protection necessary in our visual culture?

Thanks for sharing.
