Oh I've brought you here to the Église Saint- Séverin with me many times. I love, love this beautiful church. Today one more little alcove with a side door that caught my eye. As I reviewed this photograph I marveled at the gorgeous mural and the details of the doors, the sloping floor with the light under the door, and the time worn plaster work. I'm grateful for my photographs, for often they allow me to spend more "time" in places that too often I must hurry through.
Bon demanche mes amis.

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.

The light under the door was what struck my eye first, then all the other wonderful details in this great shot.
Know just what you mean, V—the shots of the recent Italy trip (all 2,000+ of them) are scrolling across my desktop right now. Bon dimanche!
This church has so many details that call me back time after time. You have captured the scene perfectly. Let's go again.
I saw your comment on Laurent"s blog. Reading Le Monde is a great way to learn French and you can see it online:
French = http://www.lemonde.fr/
English = http://mondediplo.com/
this is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I love the wall murals...everything about it!!!!
Alexa,
The light under the door did it for me as well. Your Italy photos are wonderful.
V
Genie,
I can't wait to do Paris with you again mon amie.
Chieftess,
I'm glad you liked it as much as I did!
Starman,
Darlin, I can't read DICK AND JANE, much less le Monde in French! I wish I could. I think it's just beyond my reach. I fear I must still rely on my smile and Southern charm to get along in Paris. HA
Oh so beautiful, so worn, so old. Ah!
Somehow V, I think that Southern charm works wonders for you in any country in any language!!!
I know exactly what you mean. I have often looked at my photographs and thought, "Why didn't I spend more time there...?"
And Virginia, indeed ~ a smile, a bonjour, a merci, a s'il vous plaît will take you everywhere :-)
