As we stood listening to the harpist, I turned and spotted this couple framed in the archway. My Paris moment continues. Come back tomorrow for the end of the story!

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 have been meandering through your photographs . . . magnificent, simply magnificent. Thank you for making Paris so real to me. I hold a place in my heart for that city, and the only reason is because as a child I always dreamed of going there and setting up my easel along a sidewalk somewhere in the city. Old dreams dye hard. Thanks to you I can go there whenever I please. I feel blessed to be following your blog. Connie :)
Fabulous image V. The lamp lined street framed by the archway is a wonderfully composed. The bicycle leaning on the lamp post and the couple strolling into the distance is the perfect Paris image. Bravo!
This is so MY Paris!!!
Lovely. You nailed it.
Love it immensely ! Light, and shadows, framing and ambience, Paris vraiment .
