I don't know how to ever get a shot like La Fontaine, but this is absolutely stunning. Les Secrets - an intriguing shot. As is that awesome Green Door. I wonder...
La Fontaine is a classy shot. Take my word for it it is. Love the titles you have especially "Les Secrets" conjours up so much conjecture behind the image. I have often found a well placed title to an image is indeed a huge draw when retailing photos.
I had to smile today when I recognized the green door in Montmarte! I just checked, and yes I have a photo of that exact same door. The vines around it were a little greener, but it's the same door.
How kind of you to give me - well, US - another door! What a hoot that Sharon has a photo of the same door. Now that I know it's in Montmartre I'll search for it on my next trip!
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

I meant to say the green door has a very English country feel. Red and green combo is always so striking.
Le Fonataine was hand held and I have debated even putting it up! Merci beaucoup!

Hand held. Told you it can be done, and done well. Ah grasshopper you are a willing pupil.
Love you r Concorde fountain photo! Looks like these mopeds could use a little maintenance. They too make excellent photos!
