Description Louvre- Interior

IM Pei's masterpiece. This building was the center of the most heated debate of Paris in the 1980's. They didn't want a CHinese American Architect (of the highest caliber) to touch their national site. Well, the design enhanced it significantly. And by god it has increase tourism by millions of times. Once completed they no longer used racist propaganda against mr. Pei and in fact many who saw him strolled around (just as a average visitor) Thanked him for providing such an amazing design.

Hi ,

My name is Byron, I'm from South Africa.
The reason I'm emailing you is about your cool picture!

In 2004, after graduating from high school, I travelled around the world for 11 months and filmed my travels...
I'm currently putting together a show of my journey called Travelling Unplugged (www.travellingunplugged.tv).
In one episode I went to Paris and in one section I visited the Louvre.

Could I please include your picture in this section?

It will be on for about 2-3 seconds.
I will put a big thank you in the credits attributing the picture to your name, as well as a link to your website on the show's website
if you'd like.

If it's cool, could you just send me a confirmation email (connect@travellingunplugged.tv) or by replying to this comment, basically saying that "It's cool, I can include your picture "

Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you!

Much Peace,

Byron Taylor

i prefer that it not being really high in the HDR- look. Because really, if I really want a painting, I would give it more filter effects. HDR to mee is to create a look that's close to what you see. The advantage of your eyes is not something your camera can pick up. I want the the range but not the effects because its actually much closer to what your eyes see.

Oh ok, understood!
When i create a HDR i want the effect to be strong (as you can see in my gallery...)... Everyone has his own style
Btw this is a great pic!! Congrats
