I'm always surprised—and pleased—when I pass by the Louvre late at night and find hardly another soul around. (Just wish I had the chance more often!) [To see more Weekend Reflections, visit James's meme.]
What must please you even more is that through that center portal back there is another body of water across which a friend of yours was looking in this direction. A different time, a different day and your eyes could have met...
A stunning capture, Alexa. Thanks for sharing. I'll be in Paris again in April so my photo buddy and I will doubtless have some evening strolls with our cameras!
I know; I always used to think the same when at Le Square du Vert Galant on the Ile de la Cite. Love the stillness in your photo....
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful shot! It brings back good memories.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely magic!
ReplyDeleteWonderful reflection of the building and pyramid.
ReplyDeleteYes that is really a rare moment, the Louvre deserted... And such a lovely angle on this nice monument !
ReplyDeleteI agree this photo is magical.
ReplyDeletewonderful light effects - great shot
ReplyDeletewow...that is really excellent night shot...Absolutely magical...
ReplyDeleteA beautiful setting indeed ... I hope you were not alone. Or is it safe in Paris, alone at night?
ReplyDeleteSadly, it certainly wouldn't be here.

ReplyDeleteWhat a SUPERB image! :-)
ReplyDeleteMagnificent!!!! I miss Paris!
ReplyDeleteTG -- an "almost" encounter. (Except that I had seen him the night before and wished him bon voyage—when I took this shot, our friend was in Denver!)
ReplyDeleteLovely!!!
