The Louvre Pyramid has sheltered the work of artists many times. At the moment, it's a piece by French artist Claude Lévêque who installed a huge red lighting from the top to the bottom. Very impressive and beautiful. I went last evening to photograph it, especially for you! If you want to see it for real, you still have some time... It'll be there until 2015!
It looks like a heart beating inside the pyramid. Beautiful framing. Beautiful photo. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome that was really an easy photo to take!
DeleteComing to Paris mid May(for the 14th time!), going to see/photograph this then.
ReplyDeleteAnd see it with your eyes!
DeleteA beautiful effect, Eric!
ReplyDeleteMerci, but I did not do much this time...
DeleteEric, it is truly spectacular. I originally thought that the idea of a glass pyramid in front of the Louvre was terrible. I have since completely reversed my opinion. This wonderful installation makes me even more impressed with the pyramid.
ReplyDeleteA lot of French people felt the same and came to the same conclusion as yours!
DeleteBeautiful and the sky is pretty amazing too!
ReplyDeleteA little too much rain at the moment in my opinion...
DeleteI have not been to Paris for almost four years and this picture makes me long to breathe in the wonder of one of my most favorite places. Thank you for taking the time to take this photo along with every other photo for PDP. It's something I look forward to every morning as I wake to meet the day. I teach geology, astronomy and Earth science (which also have daily pages), but sometimes sneak in a peek to PDP with my students....
ReplyDelete"but sometimes sneak in a peek to PDP with my students...." LOL It almost sounds like you're doing something illegal ;-)
DeleteMerci anyway for your nice compliments.
Oh, Eric! Thank you for the photo, beautiful! I cannot wait to get back and of course this is just another reason to plan the trip. Hope you are doing well.
ReplyDeleteBises,
Genie
I am Genie, thank you. And I can see that you are too as you're already planning your next trip to Paris ;-)
DeleteWOW!!! Beautiful
ReplyDeleteThank you for the symmetry :-)
You're welcome. Thank YOU!
DeleteI thought the same as Genie—not that I ever need a reason to want to return to Paris, but wow!
ReplyDeleteNo, you don't need a reason to want to come to Paris ;-)
DeleteNice work Eric. I guess this means I now have a deadline, something to motivate me!
ReplyDeleteHow great ! The red color is impressive. Something that makes me think of the red stop behind the cars lights. A thiner thing, a red line. Something I am thinking can exist inside me ! :-) My own red line.
