Rumor has it there was a light dusting of snow in Paris this week. This was taken sever years ago. The morning we arrived, there was snow still on the ground from earlier in the week. Just as Peter and I headed fro Tuileries, it began to rain. Quelle dommage. This is about all I got.

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.

Virginia, beautiful. You know my Mamma had Alzheimer's and I
cherish my memories so much. I can close my eyes and see a restaurant
on Amsterdam, and Place Chichy side walk cafe. Women carry flowers upside down. I had to ask in broken french WHY? I found the French will be very kind if you try to speak French. I asked a man "Where is the train, he said you are asking,
where is the war? I said, I am Southern he laughed. I love Paris.
My house was burnt to the grown during Hurricane Andrew, all my photo's
everything went. I'll never forget. Sometime I wish those memories
wouldn't creep into my mind. Love your photo's. yvonne
What a pretty sight, Virginia!
Beautiful scene. It reminds me of a quiet winter morning.
