Parisian Modernism

Some images from La Défence area in Paris.
This is a remarkably modern and impressive area of architectural design and environmental delight.
The French have a unique sense for design and grandeur.

Very nice gallery with interresting deformation effects (I like the curvy Arche !).

PS : La Defense is not in Paris but in Puteaux, Courbevoie and Nanterre, near Paris.

C'est une galerie très harmonieuse ayant le bleu pour fil conducteur.
On sent beaucoup de recherches dans la composition des photos avec une excellente maitrise des lumières.
Vos photos sont très attractives et parfaitement réalisées.

Nice, how you kept the tones blue. It would be nice if the "original" size was small enough to fit onto a computer screen. The quality of the images suffers when one has to click on "large".
