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.

It is amazing how much heat hundreds of these candles generate, even in Notre Dame.

La religion ne déteste pas le marketing.

A wonderful photo for Advent as we prepare and wait for Christmas! May this season glow with love and joy, chere V de B!
I love nativity scenes and the way you have pictured this one in the background with the candles in front is absolutely lovely. Bon dimanche.
thank you for sharing this beautiful image..Colx
Bon dimanche.
What a beautiful little scene in an enormous gorgeous cathedral.
Absolutely gorgeous, I love the light!
Drama almost everywhere you look in Paris... no wonder people fall so head over heels in love with it.
I was thinking what Genie said. And I see they have special "Noel" candles for the season. It's beautiful, V!
Nicely done, Virginia. And I know this is not an easy photo to take properly. Last week I took multiple photos of candles in the foreground and statuary behind. They all stunk, so I had to delete all of them.
What a gorgeous shot! Love your eye!
