Le Louvre en bleu
The Louvre, what more can I say? A stunning museum and architectural masterpiece I have enjoyed many times, though more often when visiting than since living in Paris. Last night I took an early evening stroll on my way to a concert at the famous Olympia Theater.
I could not help but stop and stare at this view I have seen so many times and yet it’s compelling and fresh, with a new perspective every time I pass by. The light was absolutely spectacular at this moment.
