    I love the Prada ad (the "pub") - its make your photo of the beautiful skylight stand out from others taken of the same subject. Wondering, though, about the orange that is echoed in the Prada ad. I recall the blues and reds of the stained glass, but not the dark orange color. Anyhow, lovely capture.

    This is another one, taken from the second floor.
    The orange is less pronounced here i think.

    Neat pictures. People forget that there are amazing views of Paris from all sorts of places. The top of the Montparnasse tower is one of my favorites. My husband jokes that it is because we can't see the building itself, and there is some truth to that. The views are great, though, if the day is reasonably clear.

    Anyhow, I love the original one you posted and, for me, the deeper orange color works really well with the entire composition!! The intense colors remind me of the HDR stuff that people do with the highly saturated colors. I only mentioned the orange because I was curious.
