I think she is working on a beautiful love poem and has gotten lost in the memories of her lover's embrace. Oh my. That must be the French in me coming out.
Whatever it was she was thinking, she is deeply entrenched in it. HAH Maybe she is thinking about a lost love...or maybe how to bring more love into this harsh and cruel world. This could be the starting of a great story! HAH :)
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
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.

That is the most terrible thing - writer's block.
Perhaps she is toying with the following opening line ... "You tread lightly on the earth. Why can't you tread lightly on people too?"

salut toute le monde,
I agree with James. Recently I wrote a short poem for my blog entitled Writer's Block

I wonder if she's thinking of the kindes way to break some poor fellow's heart. Thank goodness she's not doing it by text message oui!!
She looks quite meditative. :) I love moments like that.
Maybe she was making a list of all the hairstyles she could create with that fabulous mane. :~}
She's wondering how to start her "Dear John" letter.
Maybe she went out to get a haircut but she's having second thoughts? :)
Oh how beautifully you noticed & responded to her spirit in this moment...
I'll give her a little help: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times."
My first thought was a grocery list. I need to get out more :(
I think she is just lost in reverie, a pleasant state to be in when you can achieve it.
A lot of hair to isolate her from the rest of the world! :-)
