Photo Of The Day: Architecture Of The Louvre

The modern day Louvre is known as a museum that holds one of the world’s greatest art collections.

Photo Of The Day: Point Zero

The spot at the center of Paris.

Photo of the Day: Moët & Chandon Cave

Bottle after bottle line the wall, resting, waiting, in one of their stages of fermentation. These were resting sur lattes.

Photo of the Day: Vertus

Vertus is a champagne town that sits in the middle of Champagne country and is a daytrip away – if a car is available – from Paris.

Photo Of The Day: Marché aux Puces

It is possible to find almost anything at the Marché aux Puces in Paris – from incense sticks to Baroque mirrors, to the latest fashion.

Photo Of The Day: Moucharabiehs

Moucharabiehs are used throughout the Islamic and Arab world as a wall that serves as a window. They can soften harsh light coming into a room, increase light into otherwise dark places and increase air flow into a room.

Photo Of The Day: Chairs At The Rodin Museum

I like all of the lines in this photograph, the straight lines of the chairs and the shutters, and the curvy lines of the railing outside.

Photo Of The Day: The Wonderful World of Fromage

Just looking in this fromagerie/cheese shop window will give anyone an overwhelming sense of awe. How can anyone decide on which one to try first?

Photo Of The Day: A Contrast In Styles

The pyramid was built to ease the congestion of old museum entrance. Actually there were a number of entrances in to the museum, but many of them weren’t used as much as the main entrance.

Photo Of The Day: Little Tarts

On our way to visit a friend out in the banlieue K. and I stopped to buy these tarts.
