Details


I am convinced that I could spend an entire day in the Cour Carrée at the Louvre and find enough exquisite details to shoot. I will admit to walking THROUGH this quiet place many times on my way to and from the more famous courtyard with I.M. Pet's pyramids. This last trip as it was getting dark, I wandered in alone and was there in this beautiful space with only a few others. I sat on a bench and took it all in. I'll share more images at another time. This courtyard on the eastern side is a quiet getaway from all the tourist madness just a few yards away. Try it.

Amazing architecture, but given the place, that's to be expected!

We always seem to focus on the bigger picture but underneath are small surprises. I am sure you could of found smaller details everywhere. Thanks for sharing.

I fell like doing a Dan Brown and studying all the symbols for a secret message V.
