Still enjoying reminiscing about our trip janvier, 2010. We arrived to bitter cold, but the next morning awoke to Paris in the snow! As Mary and I walked through the Palais Royal to the Métro, we discovered something even more special. Since my first trip to Paris, les Colonnes de Buren had always been walled off for restoration. Amazingly, overnight, the walls were down! That's when I knew for certain that the Parisian Photography Gods really did love me. I have been in love with M. Buren's colonnes ever since.

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.
