I am obsessed with the architectural details of the Grand Palais and Petit Palais. They both seem to have an inexhaustible amount of details and every time I revisit them I discover something new or a different way to photograph things I’ve seen before.
I took some interesting reflection shots in the Petit Palais and stairwell shots in the Grand Palais in January.
Would love your feedback and opinions.
Here are links to my other posts about Grand Palais and Petit Palais.
