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.

These glossy red doors are so you, V. A very fine item for your Paris wishlist!
To find Virginia, ALWAYS follow RED signs! :o)
Oooohhh --- I love the doors but I would have to paint mine blue :-)
And amazing, massive, ornate doors those are!
What a stunning door. I've always loved their doors in Paris..wish I could own them myself
... Alors je viendrais souvent faire toc-toc à votre porte!!!... gros bisous
I would also LOVE to live behind these doors. Could we share a flat? Beautiful capture of the rich detail and color.
When you do, I'll come knocking for sure! And when you visit chez moi, you'll find equally ornate doors, but painted in French blue. :~} Bon dimanche, ma chère!
These doors would allow for a grand entrance (or a grand exit) every time you come and go. Perfect choice, Virginia. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
BIEN SÛR!!!! Anita
I hope you will have a flat in Paris one day! Those doors are absolutely gorgeous!
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
So you would be living in Rue du Bac, right?
Imagine what can be hidden behind theses doors! I guess it would be a more than decent place for living! The other day, I was invited with a small group to visit one of thes "hôtels particuliers" (mansions) where an old lady lived alone; three floors, a big garden...!
Maybe something slightly more modest would be good enough? :-)
Yes I can definitely see you behind these doors Virginia, so elegant and of course the perfect hue for you!!
that's a wild splash of rouge and it's details are amazingly pretty. ^0^
And I would be using that big black knocker!....Janey
Mine too, Virginia :)
Have a lovely week.
xx
These days, those doors would probably cost more than the flat.
I'd go through those doors to visit you Virginia!!!
I love theses door they look like doors on my favorite street in Paris the Rue du Bac
