Excellent energy in this shot Vincent. Out of interest why did you crop the top?

@grouser: This is my original framing, so just to mention, I didn't crop afterwards. That said, being so close to the pyramid, I had to point staight to it to avoid a bad perspective. I could've stepped back to include the top, but right away, this seemed to me as perfectly balance for mass balance (especially so with reflection of the sky). Hope you'll agree. Thanks for your comment :)

@Ken McCoy: Thank you Ken. Be sure to come back tomorrow for the second picture in that sequence.
Excellent. At first I thought I saw reflections in the windows, but I see that you can see right through to the beautiful clouds and sky. Amazing perspective on this. I think you caught it just right.

@Marion: Thank you Marion. You're right, it's quite nice because there's both the reflection AND transparence. This is actually the main entrance to the Louvre museum, in Paris.
Un angle original, et une bonne dynamique... et on ne sait plus si les nuages sont dehors, dedans, au travers, ou les trois à la fois... un bel effet ! Le fait de ne pas voir le haut, je trouve que c'est bien.. ça déroute, et au premier coup d'oeil on se dit "Pyramide??? ah bon??..."

@Francesc B.: Merci de ce commentaire. En faisant cette photo, je me suis posé la question à savoir si je devais inclure le sommet, mais la composition en souffrait beaucoup trop. Les nuages et les réflexions en eux-mêmes me semblaient plus important.
