- 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.
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 agree V. We eat with our eyes first and then hopefully the food makes our taste buds sing. J.
They look so fresh and yummy whilst being quite artistic in their form and presentation. The eye of a camera gives us a different perspective on life. Bisous
I wouldn't have thought of pumpkins as looking 'jaunty' but these ones do! Happy Halloween to you and Meeps, V.
A very different presentation than one would see in the U.S. since we generally use them for decorations rather than cooking. Nice shot.
Perfect photo for today .... Even pumpkin vendors in Paris are artistic!
Food that looks visually appealing is sure to taste better!
No matter what the country, pumpkins are fantastique!!
VIRGINIA! BONJOUR MA BELLE! Thank you for coming on by to congratulate me! Oh, those citrouilles are just magnificent! ENJOY YOUR DAY! Anita
It would seem Halloween is making a comeback in Paris.
A great photo! These pumpkins have a deeper orange color to them and the second pumpkin cut in half looks a bit like a spider web on the insides! HAH
Happy Halloween, V :)
Now I don't know what to say because what I thought to say as I saw your photo turned out to be exactly what YOU said! Well, I will say that it's a beautiful presentation—and a beautiful photo (comme toujours).
Hmmm makes me think pumpkin soup not halloween! Sorry I didn't trick or treat as a kid it was never celebrated in Australia then! Gorgeous colour Carla x
It looks like the stack is about to tip over! Great Halloween colors.
