Pyramid Rock is a gorgeous and fascinating natural attraction located just off Phillip Island. The rock’s magnificent distinct silhouette stands out against the waters of Bass Strait. It was very windy when we visited so hard to keep the camera and tripod still. Took a few go's to get it right. This panorama image is made from eight images stitched together. I was lucky that the sun, even late in the day, lit the rock for a moment.
While making this photo, I was reminded of the Kipling poem "The Betrothed," about a man whose fiancée gives him an ultimatum: he must choose between her and his beloved cigars. He spends the whole poem debating the relative merits of each, uttering the famous line: "And a woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a Smoke." That, of course, was written in another era with different sensibilities. Today, a guy could have his Nobel Prize for Literature revoked for publishing stuff like that. (And the sexism wouldn't go over too well either...)
For 120 pictures in 2020 #89 "Pyramid", this is a small glass decoration/paperweight/dust collector. The glass is actually clear, and refracts and reflects the colors around it, in this case a small glass dish.
I guess a lot of you will recognize the pyramids at The Louvre in Paris, France. This was taken on the first evening of my trip.
Was sitting in the spot for maybe 1hr waiting for the wind to stop - but that's the best what could I get that time .
The Louvre Pyramid (Pyramide du Louvre) is a large glass and metal pyramid designed by Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei. Located in the main courtyard of the Louvre Palace, it serves as the main entrance to the museum. Completed in 1989, it has become a landmark of the city of Paris.

Thanks to Will Atkins for showing me these beauties and other wonders of the Chilterns!
So this farmer collected all the boulders in his field and used them to construct a 30x30x17m pyramid! I took nearly 300 25 second exposures at f/4 and IOS 1250 (while light painting the pyramid), and stacked them in StarStax to create this image. See also my Milky Way photo over the pyramid:

Maybe not as pretty as the Swiss Matterhorn, but more exact in its pyramid form: The Vinsåshornet as seen from Geiranger, Norway.
Tour group viewing El Castillo Pyramid (Spanish for "the castle"), also known as the Temple of Kukulcan, a Mesoamerican step-pyramid at the center of the archaeological site Chichen Itza in the Mexican state of Yucatán. This pyramid was built by the pre-Columbian Maya civilization.

From the lovely mountain settlements of Otro valley, the sun rises above the great pyramid of Monte Tagliaferro, the Ironcutter.

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
