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.

Oh yes indeedy. xx
In a skinny minute! You've found my dream apartment in Paris.
Has anyone ever told you how cruel you can be? :) I'll spend the rest of the day dreaming of being there instead of my dinky rowhouse.
bev, oui, I made myself cry! HA
Harriet and Diane, we can fight over this one!
V
Mais certainement!
I sure could ... I snapped its twin in New Orleans a few years ago ...
What does this have to do with BACON?
V...you get one window...I'll take the other!!!
Liebe Virginia,
bitte entschuldigen Sie meine lange Abwesenheit!Ich habe jeden Tag Ihre wunderschöne Fotos genossen.Ihre Fotos machen mich glücklich!Vielen Dank!
ganz herzliche Grüße
Megi
Oui! In a heartbeat!
splendid
Right bank or left? Just kidding—my answer is a big, fat OUI! (It would fit right in with my Terrace Envy series—apparently you suffer from this affliction too!)
Oui oui! certainment. I can picture myself taking Le petit dejeuner on that jolie balcon - something simple like jus d'orange avec vienoisserie et cafe crѐme. Je suis trés contente!
Alexa, Right bank, but I'd love this place anywhere!~
Oui , Oui , Oui!!!!!
Oh, yes. I'll take the room at the left window. But after a while, we will need to look at left bank flats.
Honestly, I'll have to see the inside first. But I like the bacon.
There goes JB, making me laugh again.
Why Virg, you know my maison is your maison.
I love this balcony! Can I move in with you?
Jack, of course you can have the left window. And any ideas on the right bank location??
Petrea,
Actually I don't love French bacon!HA
Notice I didn't say "J'aime jambon." It's okay, I'll pack a lunch.
Definitely.....except in winter.
This is a great shot. The contrast with the open/closed window with reflection kicks it up. Its excellent. Thanks for sharing
In a heartbeat!
We almost moved to Paris from the south of France last December. Long story, but in the end it didn't work out.
One day...
Hopefully...
So beautiful! One of the many residencies I now claim as my own! (at least in the depths of my mind)
