What else could I share with you this day? My hope for all of you is that you have a year filled to the brim with love, peace, contentment and ......champagne. Oh and many trips to Paris in 2011 for all of us.
Oh, wow. I can hear the champagne corks popping as I gaze at this, dear V. Wishing you all a very happy and merry New Year, filled with dreams fulfilled and plenty of new ones to take their place.
Bonne année à toi, chère Virginia. Qu' elle te soit douce et agréable. Je trouve que tu fais beaucoup de progrès en français, bravo! Tu viens à Paris en janvier si j'ai bien compris?
I'll raise a glass to your wishes and hope the same for you Virginia! I know that health and happiness is what we should all desire and get. (I will think of you on January the 8th).
Virginia,this is SUCH a beautiful photo!! Thank you for sharing it with all of us! I am making a New Year's resolution to get to Paris this year no matter what!
What a perfect image for New Years. Bonne Année! I hope to see more of your posts in 2011 V. I adore getting little glimpses of Paris through your shots.
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.
