Love that kind of dedication! And this is like looking into one of those mirrors seen in mirrors effects ~ it's beautiful, V. Hugs to you and Meeps! x0
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.

They are far hardier souls than I. Though I like long walks, I find it difficult to motivate when the weather turns cold. *shivers*
Bon Soir V. Hope you have your mittens on, your collar raised and a woolly hat while your are out and about in the Winter snow. Keep warm J.
Keep dreaming of snow end January; it may work! :-)
Paris is always romantic, but even more under snow!

Nor did it deter the photographer! Lovely winter scene!
Wonderful image!
I love winter scenery, it's so romantic!

I dislike the cold (so the move south from New York to Las Vegas), but would put up with snow in Paris. Lovely
They are far more committed than I!
Snow and cold are not my thing.
Not surprised that you weren't deterred either, V!
Such a pretty photo, V. The snow wouldn't have stopped me from enjoying a walk out on the snow but I'd be afraid to run on it. :)
The symmetry is awfully appealing. But, if the truth were to be told, I just might prefer seeing this in the spring, summer or fall.
A wonderful natural arbor Virginia, I would really like to do this one day..well perhaps not the running bit haha!
I don't think i'd be deterred if i could walk through a lovely place like this.. cold be darned! Or something.. :D
This is a beautiful photograph! I work very close to here! :)
