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.

Reminds me of am embassy with the bars. Nice color door though.
Beautiful entrance Virginia, love the ceramic tile under the number, great find!
This entrance looks very mediterranean, maybe because of the ceramic tile. I must be nice living in this house.
So charming entrance and I love the lights and shadows in this picture!
Léia
This cloistered entrance has charm and many details... love the tiles surrounding the number. You captured it beautifully with the light.
We love the 13e (Buttes-aux-Cailles area). At least the people at #5 put up a gate that lets one see a little of their court.
Blue, blue, beautiful blue! I love the vines and plants at that doorway! What a find, V!
A beautiful doorway.
Costas
Lovely lighting
Must be nice to come home to a place like that, especially when it's in Paris !
I love Paris too...your photographs are fabulous...I'm a new follower!

Pour vous - Paris Rouge, et bleu et jaune - http://flic.kr/p/9ZuQba
Charming!
I want a door just like that—or maybe I just want that door! Seems inviting, even with bars. Love the way you captured the play of light and shadow, V.

Ah, yes, it is beautiful. This will be a suitable inclusion in your next, Paris Bleu book, Virginia.
I was sure that you were preparing also a "blue book"! :-)
Thanks for sharing nice information.
