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.

This stone post box looks intricate and artistic in deed.
I have heard of the pet cemetery in Paris. It would be fascinating to read some of the epitaphs.
Strangely , I find it much sadder than human cemeteries..
Malyss, in a way I did too. Joe, some of the farewell sentiments would break your heart.

Still amazed that they have this there. Wonderful!!
Dead animals???!!!
This is so touching!
What a wonderful idea and source of comfort. Lovely.
I think I'd bawl the whole time I was there, V. Very touching.
I totally loved this post and shared it on Facebook. I belong to a lot of animal rescue groups and spend far too much money saving animals I will never see, but then again, why not?
Aw I am an animal lover but I think this would make me quite sad. Where is it exactlty in Paris?
