Enjoying this beautiful summer day in the Place des Vosges. I smiled when I saw them. They reminded me of this photo. This group seems a bit friendlier!

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.

J'aime les cinq dames. They must be friends. Similar hairstyles. Similar sunglasses, but very different shoes ;-) -- Great shot V. I do not think they noticed the camera... What is in the plastic bag in the foreground? Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
This is a great spot to "hang out" and enjoy the parade!
sweet!
Jolie brochette! :o)
great shot ! I am a fan of people on the streets (and benches) photography. These girls look like they belong together. I prefer this shot to the previous one...I think probably mainly because it is taken from closer by, not necessarily bc they are friendlier they look tired and in need of their break from walking all over Paris (with the exception of the lady to the right) that is what the shoes seem to tell us.
Yes, I do agree! The link photo looks like YOU BEST KEEP A DISTANCE! Mais ces cinq dames ont l'air gentil!!!!! Anita
Lovely ladies basking in the Parisian sun! I wonder if zey are Parisiennes or tourists?
HI Virginia,
This group are great!! I love you Paris people shots.. Brava.. I hope things are great in your world. Carla
They look like a group of good friends .. look at the body language ..
I agree with Daryl. Friends, definitely. Similar hairstyles. Similar sunglasses. Similar body language... but very different shoes. Great shot, Virginia. They did not notice the camera it seems. I thought I had left a message last night, but I must have done something wrong... Sorry for the duplicate post if there is one. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
These friends made me smile as did the sweet music that played. I too noticed the shoes. It was a good day.
Love the way they all fit so nicely on one bench! I might have said that the ones on either end are not French—just because one is wearing jeans and the other has white sneakers. :~}
I agree that they all look like great long time friends, but whether they be Parisians or American tourists is hard to tell, I think I'm going to go with American tourists. It's a fabulous shot anyway Virginia.
Well, I only see one scarf and a pair of (good grief) white sneakers.
I hope they're not talking about me!
What a photo! I'd love to know more about them.
What a chummy group - I'd say tourist Virginia! - possibly European - they've been here before many times - they're comfortable in this big city.
Love love your "people shots" I was there yesterday!
