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.

I love the colorful leaves seen through the glass! Fantastic fall photo! Bon weekend.
And the tree frames it so beautifully ~ really lovely, V!
Oh lovely! The stylish Metro signs..Wonderful photograph.
Brrrrrrrrrrr !
The leaves make this such a perfect photo for a November day in Paris - as seen through YOUR lens and now for all to share on your blog. Thanks for sharing!
Cette entrée de métro est encore restée avec METROPOLITAIN. C'est rare!
Nothing says Art Nouveau like a Metro station.
I didn't know there was one of these in Montmartre. I went all the way to Port Dauphine to photograph one.
Great shot!!! I love the perspective!!!
Oooo la la!
Oh how I miss Paris! Thank you for sharing this beautiful image. I can't wait to go back and see Paris in the autumn.
Ah, Hector Guimard... his work is so fabulously beautiful. I remember long ago tracking down some of the houses he helped design in Paris also, there are some lovely architectural details out there by Guimard if you can find them... But the metro entrances are quintessential... timeless...
Gorgeous! Oh!
Eric has an autumn themed post today, too. I think now I must go to Paris in the fall.
So lovely!
Have a great weekend!
There you are looking up again, V. Thanks for sharing this beautiful image of our favorite city!
Wet Wet Wet is the autumn these days !
Laurent,
It was wet wet wet the day I took tthis, Nov '08!
Petrea,
I love Paris every season!
Alexa,
It pays to look up you know.
Claudine,
Je parle français avec tu à nouveau! :)
Owen,
When I return, I"ll have to kidnap you for at least one whole day to see what all you've discovered in Paris.
What a beautiful photo. Worthy of a painting, n'est-ce pas?
Fantastic! Reminds me I need to get to Porte Dauphine one of these days for a photo of that Metro...
Reminds me of Ms Liberty's crown
