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.

I just visited an antiques shop here in Phoenix so that makes this very interesting. I would not dream of taking photos there I admit. Do you ask permission?
Cool picture of la Foire aux Antiquaires. A lot of "atmosphere" chez Monsieur, and I love the reflection in the mirror. ;-) Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
so quaint!
Very nice and interesting this picture.
THAT is a fabulous photo that speaks much poetry....oh how I wish I had time to write! OFF TO WORK..and your print is done, I just need to send it off!!! Anita

Beautiful composition and I love the warm reds to golds and every color in between. Monsieur looks to be a part of the the scene.
All this luscious orange ... I couldnt have resisted either
Oh very good Virginia! What a perfect spot for this old gentleman to have a seat, he is real isn't he haha! Also a little distracted by the look of those beautiful rugs to the left.
Perfect! I'd like to use this picture in my blog of benches, if you agree, with full credits to you and a link to the original image.
Such warmth in this photo. Love it..
There is so much to like in this photo.
What a old scenary! Excellent catch
Monsieur fits right in, doesn't he? I can certainly see why you couldn't resist!
Interesting picture. Richard
Perfect, Virginia. You have a fine portrait of this gentleman in his natural environment. And . . . it is all rouge.
Hi Virginia,
The photograph is wonderful and love the reflection in the mirror.
Also the fabulous rich colours here.
Happy day
Hugs

Looks like a Bedouin in the desert! Great!
Such a rich image. If the man sits there long enough, someone might buy him too.
As a bench addict, I guess the bench here. And I like the red touches.
Très élégant ! En plus le stand a son banc public, donc très confortable !
such a great shot!!!
