This is the blue hour version of a photo I posted about 3 weeks ago. This amazing water mirror or reflecting pool is located in Bordeaux France between the Garonne River and the Place de la Bourse. It is probably one of the most photographed sites in Bordeaux.
A Bordeaux, si impara presto a camminare sulle acque…

Aglaé, Euphrosyne et Thalie
Pour les Romains, les Grâces représentent des déesses symbolisant la beauté, la séduction ou encore la fécondité. Elles seraient les filles de Zeus et d'Eurynomé. Dans la mythologie grecque elles sont appelées les Charités. Les 3 Grâces ont en commun d'être jeunes et belles, et cela de façon éternelle.
The Fountain of the Three Graces
For the Romans, the Graces represent goddesses symbolizing beauty, seduction and fertility. They would be the daughters of Zeus and Eurynomé. In Greek mythology they are called the Charities. The three Graces have in common to be eternally young and beautiful.

Nel 2006 è stato costruito uno specchio d'acqua artificiale che riflette la piazza e il palazzo della camera e dell'industria di Bordeaux. Realizzato dal fontaniere Jean-Max Llorca, dall'architetto Pierre Gangnet e dall'urbanista Michael Corajoud, si estende su 3.450 m² ed è profondo 2cm. Sotto la superficie di granito sul quale si estende lo specchio, è presente una cisterna di 800m² che permette all'acqua di scendere e risalire in superficie grazie a delle pompe. Inoltre, è stato costruito un sistema idrico composto da più di 900 pompe che realizza getti di vapore acqueo che raggiungono i 2 metri di altezza.
Il sito statunitense Landscape Network ha classificato lo specchio d'acqua di Place de la Bourse al quarto posto nella classifica delle dieci piazze più belle del mondo

Nel 1869, la fontana che sorgeva al centro della "Place de la Bourse" venne sostituita dall'attuale "Fontana delle tre grazie". Disegnata dall'architetto francese Louis Visconti, la fontana rappresenta Eufrosine, Aglaia e Talia, figlie di Zeus.

Depuis de nombreuses années, l'échoppe ambulante Albert et ses croustillons hollandais sillonne la France. Elle pose ses valises à Troyes deux ou trois fois par ans dans l'agglomération pour faire gouter ces gros beignets bien chauds et goûtus. On ne peux y déroger.

The place de la Bourse (Place Royale) faces onto the Garonne river. It was laid out in the 1700s by Louis XV architect, Gabriel, to act as a dramatic frame for an equestrian statue of the monarch. During the French Revolution, the statue of Louis XV on horseback was dismantled and smelted down in 1792. The present fountain by Louis Visconti was erected in 1869 and is known as the three Graces. The three Graces refer to the three daughters of Zeus: Aglaia, Euphrosyne and Thalie.
