Paris je t'aime
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.

Three glimpses of life in the City of Lights...a sweet taste, V.
Thanks!
T-shirts 3 for a euro? Can't beat that price. However I'd rather have the plastic model! Love the bike in the garden.
I love escargot, mainly because I love garlic and butter. Have you ever heard how they get the snails ready for slaughter? It's very labor intensive.
AH,
I'm LOL at the thought ! I'm sure they are uncooperative. That's hysterical.
Katie,
Well the sign belonged to some other tacky souvenirs. I took the shot because of the mannequins. I thought they were just great all lined up.
PS MY love is worth more than .50 E! ha
Jardin d'Acclimation needs framing.
St. Sulpice...ahhh that was a fine day together. I just read on Paris breakfasts that Dame Deneuve has her lunch at Cafe de la Mairie quite often - next time we'll sidle up to her!
xx,
M
I can't believe those T-shirt prices.
Those old church buildings are so photogenic. Never tire of seeing them. I love the bike with the little 'Toto' basket.
I feel the need to run out and buy a Tee now... Guess I'll go to Paris!
