What a great capture, V! Were they singing "The Snow Lay on the Ground"? Or maybe "Massa's in de Cold Cold Ground"? Or ... okay, I'll stop now. My WV is "berrr."
Is it a regular choir performance on Sunday? If yes, about what time and how long it is? Because I'm confused that somebody said there are free concerts every Saturday 17:45 at Eglise St Merri. Thanks =]
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.

Very good activity shot... church as so different from the gloomy Chinese temples !

Beautiful shot, V! Were you sitting in the choir with them? I love that you captured the sheet music as well.

Very nice !
Close-up and personal...can't get better than that! It must have been a moving service. Super photo.

Emily, all I can really remember is that it was in the afternoon. You may can Google the church and see the times for concerts.
