Interesting angle and POV. I agree with Daniel that the top of the building would add to the shot. Excellent colors and resolution.

Of course, the da Vinci code brings your photo to the fore, but this is one of the best posts.

Alvin,

Finally a shot where the new structure actually looks good ! Great compo. The positioning of the two buildings is really good, creating a comfortable tension between them while preserving a sense of belonging. Very nice

Superbe composition!!
Tout y est... effet mirroir, belle luminosit�, contraste d'駱oque entre le vieux b穰iment et la pyrammide en verre... et j'en passe
Bravo

Hi Alvin.

Amasing morning colours deliver the beauty of the louvre. What I don't like so much is that you cut off the main building on the left, which you could have avoided by taken the camera more up which wouldn't destroy the reflection much.

take care, Aleks

Hi, Alvin

Wonderful color, sharpness, & pov, in this outstanding landscape. Good color contrast & reflections. Tfs!

Beautiful photo, Alvin, and a fine use of the wide-angle to fit a lot of detail into this pleasant reflective composition of the contrasting architecture elements at the Louvre. Beautiful tonality brought forward by the morning light. A bit of a pity that the top of the old building is cut, that's where 14 or 15 mm would've come in handy :o) Well done.

Hello Alvin,

What a shot, Alvin! I love the lighting in this photo as well as the deep colours. The view over the Louvre is amazing with so many fine details. The reflection in the water is outstanding and the POV is great. Excellent work, Alvin!

Greetings,
Ann

Hi Alvin,
I like here the fine morning light and the clarity of the reflection which the Velvia helped to pull out nicely, I like too the angle that puts the two architectural styles side by side, It's just pity you did not frame a little bit wider and cut the chimney. How do you find these Velvia 100 compared with the discontinued Velvia 50 ?
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

I love the contrasts here, the glowing Louve, the see through dark pyramid, the reflections on the pool. I agree I can almost see the police chase from here! I like how the new structure looks almost as tall as the museum itself here. Well captured.

Hello Alvin,
wow i have never seen the Louvre and itｴs surroundings in this angle and way! Nice and original, the reflextion is perfect :)

starbug (6924) 2006-07-02 5:07

hi Alvin, there's such a huge architectural gap between these two structures, but here they come together so well, because what we concentrate here on are the fantastic colours and this great mirror reflection. plus, i suppose this contrast is what can be considered as an attraction in itself. great shot.
best regards
A.

fib2004 (593) 2006-07-02 14:00

Dear Alvin,
Great shot, you could sell it as a postcard. Perfect reflections and great contrast between the pyramid and museum. My only critique would be the fact that you are also reflected in the water.
Regards
Fabien

Hello Alvin,
une photo qui m駻ite amplement de passer les 100 points. Le seul petit repproche est d'avoir coup� le haut de la colonne.
Les eaux sont un v駻itable mirroir. J'aime l'opposition entre le moderne et l'ancien quand c'est 'harmonieux', le cas ici.
Les couleurs sont superbes, opposition de chaud et de froid.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Rossignol (2289) 2006-07-03 17:36

Inspired shot, Alvin.
The clarity of light and superb mirror-like reflections give an exciting slant to what must be one of Paris's most photographed landmarks. The stark contrast between the honeyed tones of the old building and the very contemporary glass and steel pyramid, separated by the reflections of both, works brilliantly.
Superb!
Peter

fabio_ts (13696) 2006-07-04 3:55

nivas37 (662) 2006-07-17 16:17

Hey Alvin,
I see that most of your work revolves around reflections, and they are simply wonderful to see.
This image is no exception. You could not have asked for a much clear, much crisp or more still waters than the one captured here.

ydarias (679) 2006-08-01 10:43

Hello Alvin. What can I say? The photo is superb. The utilization of the water in the photo is perfect, because the reflections and the luminosity is better. I suppouse than you used a polarizer in this shoot, but the colors are very good. Good job.

Hi Alvin, Have been missing an awful lot of excellent shot during my absence and it was hard to choice from which one I should start commenting. This one is absolutely fabulous. You have managed to shoot an original shot from an often photographed place. You should send it to them to use in their folder, it's better than any other they will ever get! Perfect beautiful reflection, sublime composition and splendid colours. Sabine

marknunnerley (2780) 2006-10-25 13:12

Fantastic shot Alvin. Is it me or is that shadow in the water of you. It,s the only thing that lets it down.
That sounds a bit strong. I mean the only thing that stops it being perfect. That sounds better. Make a note, must get better at critiqing!!!
Well done though.
Mark.
