Oh this is one place you must visit when you visit Paris. I have only been once and it was an overcast day in November, 2008. It was still breathtaking, and I won't ever forget it. Today another view.
I've only been to Paris twice :( but I did visit here. It's stunning. You have captured some of its ornate beauty very well in this photo. Thank you for reminding me.
This is one of my favorite churches in Paris although it is often filled with tourists (comme moi). Beautiful photo! I will be there in only two weeks and plan to visit it again. Bon dimanche, V.
IF, when I return to Paris it's sunny ( in January???) I will make a point to revisit and try my best to capture the light coming in the magnificent windows. Don't hold your breath, I'm not good with window shots. V
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.

Wonderful atmosphere. God bless you!
I totally agree - went there for the first time after my last visit 24 years ago. Amazing atmosphere.

This is one of my favorite Paris spots and you captured it beautifully.

I couldn't agree with you more. This is truly a must see and so many people miss it. The place is just magical.
Add it to the list...

Lovely . you did this so well ..
You should go to one of the monthly (or more often) concerts there. They're amazing.
One of my favorite places in Paris. Like being inside a kaleidoscope.
