Madame lives on a busy street in the Marais. Perhaps the noise is not so pleasant or maybe she's just having a look at what is going on below?

About Me
- Virginia
- Birmingham, AL, United States
- 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.
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 love this picture! What personality!
Great shot Genie. This "almost" reminds me of a great Hitchcock movie. Almost. That little French lady ain't exactly Grace Kelly though ! ;-) Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Une photo qui laisse l'imagination s'emporter... M A G N I F I Q U E.
Gros bisous
She doesn´t have any scarf... Is she really French? ;-)
She's surely interested by something, but what?!
Your sound track is making this such a nice visit to your blog now...thanks for that..and I love this photo of a really genuine person "keeping watch". I wonder what she would say if she saw this...
Typical French - wonderful image!
Une tres bonne semaine,
karin
You were in the right place at the right time yet again, dear V! She looks rather ferocious ~ perhaps she needs a macaron...
OH! Elle a l'air serieuse!!!! Anita
Viviane etait mise en colere, non?
Elle a l'air....
Oh my what a puss!
Sorry for calling you "Genie", Virginia! Yours and Genie's are the last blogs I read before crashing down for the night. Clearly, I was tired last night ;-) Veronique
Nice one, Genie. What do you mean, Genie and you aren't the same person?
Madame looks un peu miffed. But I like Shell's idea for turning that frown upside down! (Always works for me.)
I think she looks lonesome :(
She does look a little grrrrrrrr! Virginia, but she's doing it with a bit of French flair haha! Wonderful candid shot.
I envy her for her view.
Another fantastic picture of Paris life, Virginia!
I'm with Shell: give this woman a macaron!
She certainly looks less than friendly.
Oh dear...she doesn't look happy :(
Well captured, Virginia!
Best wishes
xx
I bet I'd look happier if I lived where she does!
Thank you all for your great comments today. I'm home from LA and getting back to visiting your blogs.

And Veronique, not to worry about calling me Genie. I told Jack that we'd finally been "outed" as one in the same blogger! HA Since we met last May '10, we've said many times that we are twins separated at birth!
V
I feel like she is regretful about something... great picture.
