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.

You can see they're really into the performance.
I love it Virginia... I can almost hear the music.. Beautiful photo.
Ah! You've captured a special moment !
"All Things French"
rue Mouffetard is always special. We make a point of taking all of our visitors there and they all love it. Early in the day the market is exciting, at night it has a romantic atmosphere, Place de la Contrescarpe has a Hemingwayesque appearance and feel and last but not least Le Mouffetard restaurant is about as authentic as they get for market street cafés. So, even when the street performers are not there it is well worth a visit. On many Saturday mornings you can find me at Le Contrescarpe either writing or sketching, something is always going on!
La rue Mouffetard est plus connue pour ses restaurants grecs que pour ses accordéonistes. Le marché reste cependant très pittoresque.
I love this . . . oh, how I wish I were there to hear them.
Beautiful :)
Your blogging sister, Connie :)
Belles gueules de titis parisiens.
Quartier phare de la ville de Paris pour les touristes.
N'est-ce pas là, que, vos tous premiers pas parisiens, vous ont guidés ?
Bon dimanche, ma chère, où vos pas vont-ils vous guider aujourd'hui '¨
Je me suis * gourée* de poste... Le commentaire pour le quartier phare, aurait du être publié à Montmartre !
What a fabulous shot, V! I'd love to know what they were singing.
Like a blast from the past! I was walking on that very rue last Saturday.
Oh, I would have loved to have seen (and heard) them...
So lovely, dear Virginia!

His glance is disconcerting... the portrait is great!
