Fast, efficient and economical. I wish my city had this rapid transit.

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.

Oui, quand les quais sont aussi vides que cela, c'est pas mal...
A study in perspective and light V. Great photograph.
I guess you just missed that one - empty quay! :-)
Good line of focal point. If Americans weren't so in love with their cars, perhaps we'd have more rapid transit in our cities.
Lots of energy and movement in that framing! Nice in b/w.
My city does have rapid transit—only it's not always as rapid as it should be, definitely not as clean (or quiet) as the Paris Metro, and only economical if you're "a certain age" and live here and can get a half-price card.
Love this photo (and am dying to use my Navigo Découverte card again)!
I am such a sucker for lines marching off into the distance like this.
You made a perfect picture of this common place!
