I'm coming, I'm coming!! Love the contrast of the white table and chairs with the back stair rail. You can almost feel the coolness of the stone and the warmth of the sun. Delightful location for a gathering!!
Oh I think this will be a divine gathering of my dear friends! Peter, I know you'll bring champagne as you always do. Maybe we will need more as well! :) Come one, come all! V
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.

The shapes, the textures, the subtle coloration! And the sentiment too: I hope you'll count me in—and make mine a Lillet, please! :~}
This photo has a very mediterranean atmosphere. I love this kind of table and chairs. Where did you take this photograph?
Me too! This must be the South of France? The weather looks perfect!
Just tell me where and when! :-)
Oh, I hope you'll count me in too, V! What a lovely time we'd all have basking in your company and that beautiful light.
Cafe au lait, s'il vous plait.
I'll be there, V! What a delightful place this is! Champagne pour moi....
Me too, me too!
You're not going to have room for all of us. I hope there are extra chairs nearby!
What a wonderful shot, I just love it.
looks delightful...!
And I'd love to be gathered.
Count on me, I can sit on the stairs! :-) Lovely composition.
