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.

The splash of red from the geraniums against the stonework is wonderful. These buildings sure look they were built to last.
A delightful spot of color on the balcony. the open doors look like they're expecting me!
I think that people from Paris would like to be able to sing : "Un , deux , trois ... soleil !", as they're having a cold and rainy summer!
Wonderful pieces of history !
Oh so beautiful.
so very (at least to this NYers imagination) Parisian
Just as it has to be ;-)
It is such a delight to visit your site every day - as well as the photos I so enjoy the music!
Love the classic designs of the building along with red and pink geraniums...
Gorgeous balcony. Love the stone finish and the corbels set on each side of the windows! :)
Love the symmetry—and the little pops of red and pink!
That's my apartment just above.
The architecture is so incredibly beautiful! I sure would like to live there.
There is something rather royal about this balcony ...
Even a modest show of gerania brightens up the balcony.
How did you like the gerania thing? Sometimes I am so literate I can't stand it.
Well, actually only two and a half! :-) Looking at the open windows and the flowers, this must not have been from one of your winter visits. :-)
Wonderful blog & good post.Its really helpful for me, awaiting for more new post. Keep Blogging!
