Fire and shadow.
Les Invalides, Paris

#PhotographersOfBluesky #EastCoastKin #ColorADay #RedWed #WallsOnWednesday #AlphabetChallenge #WeekSForShadows #reflections
A curved metal wall with a light installation about a third of the way up that follows the curve and creates the illusion of a line of fire encircling the wall. The rest of the space is mostly in deep shadows, with the light reflecting off of the floor and ceiling. Another curved structure is curled up against the ceiling, and appears gold with reflected light. In the background, another room is dimly visible through a glass wall, with a video playing on its back wall, the red and blue colors of which are reflected on the floor.
