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.

Beautiful and grand, V!
Whenever I am in Paris (not often but valued when I am) I always look for an opportunity for doors like these to open and I can catch a quick peek at the inner world within. Merci Beaucoup
Gorgeous, V! What I wouldn't give to have the key code to such a door—and an apt. on the other side!
Such amazing details on these beautiful doors. Even the stonework around them is impressive. I'm tempted to go up and knock just to see who might answer!
A door like this will soon be opening for you.
Lovely old door .. I love doors
Love these doors!
