Personnage énigmatique regardant la tour Eiffel. Un tablier, des cheveux bouclés, les bras nus, et ce qui ressemble à un écureuil derrière elle. Qui nous dira son nom ? Blanche neige peut-être.
I love the 'from the inside out' aspect; snow is so much lovelier when one doesn't have to freeze one's feet off, don't you think? Happy, Happy, Happy New Year dear friend; we shall pass through all the events, surprises, downs and ups with a wide open heart and mind! Love, ♥ Kiki
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, part-time painter, lover of all things French ( whose français is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic art museum volunteer, grateful 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". My 2008 trip I looked at Paris with a different 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. I was thrilled to return to Paris and the French countryside in June and July of 2009, and blogged daily while there. I've returned to the city I love in January and June- 2010 , January 2011 and January 2012! Each time I visit, it feels more and more like home, and I discover new and interesting things with each trip. I cherish the time with my Paris friends as well as the friends that always join me there. 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 is certainly an appropriate photo for the weather here today. I love the sculpture in the snow.
Yes, 'il fait froid' - mais it looks beautiful!
Une tres Bonne Anne, Virginia.

Pretty photo, the statue looks like it belongs in this setting. :)
Le sigh....how I would love to be there looking at La Tour Eiffel!
Your photos never disappoint!
Are we coming up on our 4th or 5th January together?
Through a window is the onlt way to see snow!
You can feel how cold it is outside in this photo.
