I apologize, my dear readers and followers. Not many visits and comments these last few weeks. I'm finally moved and hope to have more time to stop by your blogs and say, "Bonjour!" I know you understand!
I've been quieter myself lately, dear V! Life happens. :) I'm happy to hear you and Meeps have now settled into your new home. How lovely! And this Parisian detail is lovely, too.
Hi. I love your blog, but I don't comment too often, I should be better at that too. Since I live in Paris I'm just curious where exactly this is captured? If you remember the name of the street etc? I would like to paint it. :-)
Fabulous photo!!! This is why i love Paris! Of course we understand! Glad to hear you are all moved in! I know what that's like having moved twice in one year! If i see anymore bubble wrap i will scream! Hope your knee is better V !!
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, part-time painter, lover of all things French ( whose français is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic art museum volunteer, grateful 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". My 2008 trip I looked at Paris with a different 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. I was thrilled to return to Paris and the French countryside in June and July of 2009, and blogged daily while there. I've returned to the city I love in January and June- 2010 , January 2011 and January 2012! Each time I visit, it feels more and more like home, and I discover new and interesting things with each trip. I cherish the time with my Paris friends as well as the friends that always join me there. 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.

Exquisite! ....and the sort of thing I miss when over-shadowed by the big picture. Thanks

Beautiful details!!! Now that your move is over, you can focus on the details of settling in!!!
Glad to hear you're moved in. Now comes the fun part—the details! (And this one is just exquisite.)
I hope the move went smoothly for you.
