WOW this is truly breathtaking and an outstanding Black and white landscape that really pops. This should be available as a DPC print and hanging on many many walls, around the world.

A unique view of this landmark. The lightposts, of course, almost take over - but it works. The b/w treatment is flawless. It's less a portrait of the Louvre as it is a complete scene which incorporates it and it works beautifully.

WOW! How on earth have I missed this shot when visiting your profile?! Absolutely wonderful. Should be a postcard. The starbursts are so cool and I love the perspective. Excellent!

What I really like about this shot is that it looks like it was taken in the 1920s but, of course, we all know it's a brand new part of the Louvre.

FYI

This is a view I have not seen before. Captures the IM Pei structure very well, IMO.

The Louvre Pyramid is a large glass pyramid at the front of the Louvre museum in Paris. It was Commissioned by then French president François Mitterrand, and was designed by Chinese born American architect I.M. Pei. It was completed in 1989. Reaching a height of 20.6 meters, its square base has sides of 35 meters (115 feet). The pyramid covers the Louvre entresol and forms part of the new entrance to the museum.

Thanks for your comment :o)
