Hôpital Tenon
La construction de l'hôpital commence en 1870, sur les plans de l'architecte Marie-Étienne Billon, mais doit être interrompue pendant la guerre de 1870 puis la Commune de Paris. L'hôpital ouvre en 1878, sous le nom d'hôpital de Ménilmontant. Mais dès février 1879, lui est attribué le nom de Jacques Tenon, chirurgien du xviiie siècle qui en avait dessiné les principes de construction et d'organisation dans son « Mémoire des hôpitaux de Paris ».
L'hôpital Tenon voit naître, le 19 décembre 1915, la chanteuse Édith Piaf. Joseph Pleigneur, dit Manda, poignarde Leca sortant de Tenon avec Amélie Hélie, dite Casque d'or, ce qui inspira un film à Jacques Becker. L'anarchiste ukrainien Nestor Makhno y décède le 25 juillet 1934.

Le Parvis de Notre-Dame ... old style and nostalgia
It was a beautiful sunny day. A Sunday afternoon I believe. The temperature had reached about 35 degrees Celsius. Thousands of visitors from across the world were queuing up in front of Notre-Dame ... eager to discover or re-discover its blessed treasures.
Lueur D'Antan ... Cette église a conservé quelques éléments de son architecture romane du XIe siècle, son portail du XIIIe, mais la nef est récente (1902). Elle domine le vieux bourg de St Pierre et abrite le vitrail du "Pater des Vendéens", scène qui s'est déroulée sur le parvis le 11 avril 1793. l'exposition permanente, la "Vendée chemilloise se tient dans un de ses transepts. Celle-ci retrace l'histoire des Guerres de Vendée dans la Région de Chemillé à l'aide de nombreuses illustrations et explications.
A deviation of Sylvie Fleury's original "Tableau n°1" (Itself a deviation of Mondrian's work)
I chose this zoom effect to make it look like the fur added by Fleury comes off, leaving the original background as flat as in Mondrian's original expression.
within the striking architecture of the oculus in new york city, a lone figure walks through the interplay of light and shadow on the tiled floor, caught between worlds of clarity and mystery. the sharp lines and dramatic contrast of the space create a delicate balance — a dance between presence and absence, reality and abstraction. as she moves forward, her silhouette merges with the dark shadows, suggesting both purpose and anonymity. the soft transitions of light invite the viewer to ponder: is she stepping into the light or fading into the darkness? a moment of introspection and hidden stories unfolding in one of the city's most iconic spaces.
A place that John Paul II once walked through to pray Virgin Mary.

There is much worse than standing up in a queue. Now I know that.

in the heart of palma de mallorca's old town, this photograph captures the storefront of a phone repair shop. as a quirky display, old and broken phones are stacked high in the window, creating a visually chaotic yet intriguingly patterned scene. the arrangement of these discarded devices forms lines that stand in stark contrast to the reflection of a passerby in a jersey, adding a layer of dynamic interaction between the structured chaos and the life outside.
