A user-controlled 360° panorama of the grassy park at the base of the Eiffel Tour.

The young lady in the elegant yellow gown was part of a large group of well-off Mexican girls seemingly celebrating their Quinceañera in Paris complete with a squad of personal photographers.

We sat around a lot at this park near the Eiffel Tower so when the clouds finally broke open to rain down sunlight, I jumped at the chance to make this panorama, along with a host of straight Eiffel Tower shots.
