Oh man I was there 3 weeks ago. That building sure is a strange one, with the escalators and all the services on the outside.

Gorgeous golden lighting on the building, to match the... flowerpot?

Fantastic shot! You have such a great knack for creating a feeling of scale.

Love the perspective and the structure, well seen Sam.

I had to scroll to find the reason for the image title which made it even better. What a sense of scale!

Man I wish I could juggle as good as him, nice lighting and cool that you got another person in there.

A nice way to document the Centre Pompidou, so many times photographed. And a nice contrast between the juggler training and the bored man sitting...

the centre pompidou is one of things i have firmly implanted in my memory from my french language textbooks from high school!

Wow, great shot but do you see how many balls he has in the air? He's quite good, a pro no doubt. 5 balls means a juggler is serious and this guy has at least 6. Wow.

Very interesting. That building looks like it's still under contruction, very unusual.

cool angle, great commentary.

This building is how I imagined the architecture of Howard Roark in "The Fountainhead". Although to see it it looks totally inorganic and wasteful (perhaps that is the best statement of how "we" design cities (at least in the north americas..but this one is in France!!!???). I guess my imagination decieved me, better redesign my mental images.

Juggling is so hard. A task I have yet to master!!!

Fantastic sense of scale. And I think the guy sitting down is Elvis.
