Admittedly, this is from my November 2008 visit, but I wanted to share it once again as I thought the windows at the fabulous Galeries Lafayette were just over the top wonderful for the young and old!

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.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love that sparkle and pink. Thanks for sharing - who cares when it's from...I love it.
What time were you there to get this picture without the crowd !
A Noël, les Galeries Lafayette ont de très belles vitrines pour les enfants! C'est vraiment un spectacle à ne pas manquer!
Well, you know how fascinated I am by all the windows in Paris. I think that 2008 was the only year we missed out of five... so glad that you have the photos to show me!
The small child seems focused—I hardly know where to look first!
Beautiful !
I would love to be in Paris during Christmas, I'm sure the city of lights will be even more magical.
Still stunningly lovely
Christmas is for kids. Thankfully, I am still one.
BTW - I haven't checked recently, but I heard the city was planning to set up another ice rink at the swimming pool near the Passerelle Simone de Beauvoir.
Laruent,
It was "photographer's luck" again! :)
Starman,
I'm not ice skating ANYWHERE at my age! :)
