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.

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.
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.
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
