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.

Non, jamais! Merci, V --
Jamais...
Simply beautiful
How could anyone ever tire of a view like this. I remember my first trip to Paris many years ago. My wife and I scoured the city for a room. We finally found one and after lugging the cases up four flights of stairs to the attic room with a sloping roof we made our way to the small balcony window. We pushed open the panes and their in the distance shone a tiny Tour Eiffel. Happiness J.
Never Virginia, who could!!
Je préfère l'été!
Samuel Johnson wrote that when a man is tired of London he is tired of life....perhaps he never visited Paris, or his quote would have been applied to this beautiful city too.
No, Virginia. This view is wonderful.
Perfect lighting, perfect view -- and no, I would never tire of it!
Jamais!!!
Would anyone? :-)
