The pyramid used as an entrance in the Louvre's courtyard has the exact same proportions as the Great Pyramid of Giza. The choice of this figure also serves as a reminder of the importance of the Egyptian antiquities collection inside the museum, as does the Obelisk in Place de la Concorde not far from there, the other side of the Jardin des Tuileries. At its base, the pyramid measures 116 feet wide and 70 feet high. 95 tons of steel and 105 tons of aluminum support the structure

Panoramic view of Giza pyramid complex. The first three pyramids are called queens pyramid and are part of the funerary complex of the Mykerinos pyramid. Mykerinos is the smallest pyramid of giza (63 m). Behind Mykerinos stands Khephren. Khephren was the father of Mykerinos. We can see at the top the original coating that covered all pyramids in the past. Khephren bigger than mykerinos (143,5 m). The third pyramid is Kheops, also called great pyramid of Giza. Kheops was the grand-father of Mykerinos (146,6 m). Kheops pyramid has been built 4500 years ago.

Vue panoramique sur le plateau de Gizeh. Les trois premières pyramides sont appelées pyramides des reines et font parties du complexe funéraire de la pyramide de Mykérinos. Mykérinos est la plus petite des trois pyramides de Gizeh (63 m). Derrière Mykérinos se tient Khephren. Khephren était le père de Mykérinos. On peut voir au sommet le revêtement d'origine qui couvrait toutes les pyramides dans le passé. Khephren est plus grande que Mykérinos (143,5 m). La troisième pyramide est celle de Khéops, aussi appelée grande pyramide de Gizeh. Khéops était le grand père de Mykérinos (146,6 m). La pyramide de Khéops a été construite il y a 4500 ans.
I took some pictures after work tonight. This one is the Louvre's pyramid. I didn't have any tripod with me so I had to improvise! I also forgot to switch back from JPEG to RAW and therefore the quality is not as good as I would like it to be. I will go back there with more gears in the next few days. Feel free to tell me what you think!
The most famous Egyptian pyramids are those found at Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo. Several of the Giza pyramids are counted among the largest structures ever built. The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.Giza is the location of the Pyramid of Khufu (also known as the "Great Pyramid" and the "Pyramid of Cheops"); the somewhat smaller Pyramid of Khafre (or Kephren); the relatively modest-sized Pyramid of Menkaure (or Mykerinus), built around 2500 years BC

is the second-tallest and second-largest of the Ancient Egyptian Pyramids of Giza and the tomb of the Fourth-Dynasty pharaoh Khafre (Chefren), who ruled from c. 2558 to 2532 BC.
The Great Sphinx of Giza is a limestone statue of a reclining sphinx, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human. Facing directly from West to East, it stands on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile in Giza, Egypt. The face of the Sphinx is generally believed to represent the pharaoh Khafre.
There is a lush roundabout covered with Pyramidal orchids (Anacamptis pyramidalis) that the council seems to have only partially mown.
See the pyramid made of leaves
Blowing gently in the breeze
See it sway, see it rise
Trying to touch the passing skies
That floats above the pyramid, now seen
Rising tall and coloured green
Never thought that Pyramid Lake would have such amazing diversity of wildlife and landscape. It felt like the ocean or perhaps a dead sea.

The clouds were racing across the sky this particular morning at Pyramid Lake in Jasper. Thus, I put on a 10-stop filter and took a long exposure and really liked the effect. Join us this coming Sept on our Canadian Rockies Photo Tour:

The great pyramid at Giza, belonging to the first ruler of the 4th Dynasty Khufu, viewed from the cemetery for the Egyptian nobility located to its east. The offering chapel of a mastaba (bench) tomb is in the foreground, and behind it are the remains of the so-called "queens' pyramids". Old Kingdom, ca. 26th century BCE.
19e Pyramide de chaussures organisée samedi dernier par Handicap International pour que cesse le scandale des mines et des bombes à sous-munitions.
Les mines antipersonnel font encore une victime toutes les deux heures dans le monde ! Handicap International accompagne les victimes, démine les terres et prévient les accidents. L’association se mobilise également contre les restes explosifs de guerre (dont les bombes à sous-munitions) et leur usage en zones peuplées.

This wonder was erected by a broken hearted Queen Victoria in 1862 following the death of Prince Albert at age 42 the previous year. It sits on a picturesque hillside overlooking Balmoral Castle.
Victoria was Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 20 June 1837 until her death on 22 January 1901.
The Bent Pyramid at Dashur, built for Snefru, on a hazy winter morning. The locally quarried masonry from which most of the monument is built is exposed at its crumbling base, with higher-quality imported limestone for the external sheathing. An unusual amount of this sheathing layer is still intact, in part due to Dashur's remote location. In contrast, the pyramids at Giza were largely stripped of their sheathing materials for reuse in Medieval and later buildings in Cairo.
Old Kingdom, 4th Dynasty, late 27th/early 26th century BCE, Dashur.
