You can't please all of your readers all the time but today, I'm sure I'm pleasing at least one! Starman has suggested that I do a Primary Color post. As luck would have it, I found one photo that fits the rouge, bleu, jaune theme. Pour toi, Starman!

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.

Who was it that said if you see something red photograph it? Well, they were right. Great way to wake up this Monday morning.
Paula,
Don't know who said it but I wish I had! You know I'm thinking about starting Jan 1 doing nothing but BW film ( with a 50mm lens) for a month or more. I am worried that I won't be able to break my rouge addiction by then. We'll see. and if you want to relax and take yourself to a most serene place, visit Diederick's Aronaeveryday blog today. AMAZING fog photograph!!!
SS and Shell,
Glad this photo floats your boat as well. :)

I am in deep love with that door ...
Merci à toi, Virginia. It;s great. It kind of looks like someone turned a recycling bin into a house or office, doesn't it?
Starman,
If you search Jardins des Plantes at the top of this blog, you'll see another shot of this cute little shed from another angle. WHY didn't I nose around and see what they had inside?? I'm thinking tools maybe? I'm glad you liked it.
