# Context


I was in Paris, visiting the city with a bunch of friends. I set down in the entry hall, to read the map of the building, this thing is a total maze. I was looking around, this place is awesome. When you enter the Louvre, you cross the pyramid to descend under it. My road map is done. I look up to rise, and I notice I was sitting just under the center of the pyramid. So I took a shot.

# Location


48° 51′ 39″ N, 2° 20′

Le Louvre is located on the side of the river La Seine that split Paris in two, in the first district. The pyramid was achieved on the 30 Mars 1989, it's designed by the sino-american architect Leoh Ming Pei.

The pyramid is part (by a few degrees) of the Axe historique It fit on the axis of the business district, l'Arc de Triomphe, les Champs Elysée. Those monuments draw a line across Paris, that allows you to see all of them aligned.

The "great pyramid" is not alone, she is surrounded by 3 replicas acting as skylights, and the inverted pyramid on La place du carousel, that is buried, pointing down.

These photos are beautiful! I am fascinated by textures, and the first photo is striking! Keep on steemin', you're doing it right!

Hey @art.life Thanks ! That's funny, I don't think at all in the way of textures, more in structure, shapes, and lines. Can you detail what's your point with textures ? :)

Oh, I was thinking more of patterns, and especially when those patterns have depth in their shapes.

Thanks men I appreciate !
