Overlooking the Place Stravinsky, this charming café was too scrumptious to pass by.

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 too scrumptious!
I popped over from Jennyfreckles in Saltaire. She is right you do have a great blog. Very interesting photos. Paris is one of our favourite cities but we don't get there often. It is a long way from Australia.
Thanks for the inspiration V. I love your photos.
hello V.I'm from malaysia and i love your artwork.teach me how to be expert then
C'est une jolie et romantique photo, j'aime cette énergie et la douce lumière!
bisous
Léia
My favorite tones with warm feeling, wonderful subject !
I'm sure the coffee would taste great sitting in that window.
This is everything I love about Paris - I just can't find the right word, but it just warms my heart.

"All Things French"
A charming café and your soft yellow looks like a stage set it is so perfect... love this, V.
Bises,
Genie
Looks like this cafe is waiting for some latecomers! But of course I would be one of them.
Looks like a cosy place to be visiting.
Your photo makes me think of the café in Arles made famous by Van Gogh's painting....they are different to be sure, but the color yellow is so inviting in both....
Was the food scrumptious aussi?
There are so many cafés in that area, and they're all great.
fabulous pictures, brought back memories of our stay in Montmatre last year - thank you.
A charming cafe. I bounced here today from Saltaire and previously from Genie. You have lots of blogger buddies.
I love the way it's sitting here in its own warm pool of light. Very inviting, V!
Oh so many new commenters today. WELCOME Jack,
Mr.D, csk.com, and Von. I hope you come back often. And of course I knew my faithful readers would like this and want to gather together here for a sip. I'll join you! :)

Beautiful! The colors are so lovely. It almost looks unreal.
OH V I love this photo!!! I love how it is at night and the cafe is so light up!!
I would love to have a glass of wine or something here...
Oui, Oui, This photo is absolutely a delight. The warmth, like sunshine, even in the chair, is just incredible. I am so happy you found a cafe that is bathed in such beautiful colors...Merci!
Hello, my name is Nicole and I just love your blog. I have been following it for some time now. I am a Paris lover as well except.... I've never been. :/ BUT! This summer I am taking a study abroad class in Paris and now I love your blog even more. It gets me soo excited about my adventures to come. I am a photography student at Texas State University and I'll be attending a photography class when in Paris, so I'm even more excited to see what I come across with my lens. I just wanted to share my appreciation for your blog and that I think your images are beautiful!
