HDR Photography | Into the Louvre

Every time I visit the Louvre, I always marvel at the stark contrast between the modern glass pyramids and the historic architecture that surrounds them. When we rented an apartment in Paris for the summer two years ago, I knew it was the perfect opportunity to photograph the grounds at night. There’s something magical about Paris at night! I wanted to try something different, so I lined up the pyramid so it was right in the center of the shot. For the edit, I really wanted to play up the glow so I opted for a warmer/softer look and I love the way it came out!
