It's official, Christmas in Paris has arrived on this blog. I can't promise it will appear here every day but we'll sprinkle the photographs around. Today, one of the beautiful trees that flanked the front of the Hôtel de Ville last year.

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.

Un sapin qui paraît tout en cristal... et d'une grande délicatesse... Une magnifique prise!
gros bisous
La statue semble se retourner pour regarder le sapin derrière elle.
Only in Paris - isn't that the most divine tree!!!!
Thank you for taking me there today in spirit Virginia.
hugs

So many layers of light and shade to this photo Virginia. Nice one.
Paris deve ficar ainda mais linda no Natal
abraço

It is here...all around the world, in its own expression. How marvelous Anita
You are not missing anything, the Xmas decoration in front of the Hôtel de Ville, is this year much more modest! :-)
What a beautiful, magical photo of Paris by night with a Christmas twist! Magnifique, V de B!
..Maybe Christmas has already arrived in Paris.
..Not sure if it will reach us here.
Joyeux Noel Virginia.

Is this one of your magnificent photos that appeared in Belle Inspiration Magazine?
No wonder they chose your work!
The Hotel de Ville is gorgeous without any extra embellishment—these trees look like the icing on the cake. Beautiful, V!
Very pretty, and it's such a gorgeous building anyway. According to Peter (see comment above) this year is not quite as striking looking. Dommage... Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
tres, tres jolie!
Very elegant image Virginia.
Uouuuu lovely!
gorgeous !!
Silver bells, silver bells....
J'adore! Merci Virginia...
In my book, this is an A+ photo! Your composition, the lighting on Hotel de Ville and the tree...c'est parfait!
PS - I think this would make a très jolie carte de Noel.
My favourite time of year! Gorgeous photo I love that tree
