May Day au musée

There are thousands of beautiful
things in the Louvre—not
just paintings and sculpture, jewelry,
furniture, and objets d'art, but 
also the building itself.  This gate is one 
of my all-time favorite elements.
Wishing a Happy May Day to all and to my 
French friends, je vous offre un petit
brin de muguet.

and to Shadow Shot Sunday.]

the Louvre at night

I can't imagine why none of these people
are gazing at the view right in front
of them—the pyramid all lit up here in the
courtyard of the Musée du Louvre.

How can they resist?
