We stopped for a light dinner one night and this terrific wall just begged me to drag out the camera, even though the light was....not good.

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.

Not good? Its a very well composed, extremely involving photo ..
I'd say you more than made up for the "not good" light with a great composition! (Actually, I think the light here is terrific too.)
Not good lighting? That's ambiance, n'est-ce pas?
Wonderful photo V...and I love the lighting!!! I especially love the composition of all the words, and the young woman in the corner...makes it very interesting...I think this is a very sellable photo!!!
Is that the place where we got food poisoning???
Mary,
HARRRRR!
The light seems to be perfect. What is the name of this resto? Thw word ver for this is prost. With just a little more imagination it could be Proust, which would be so much more apropos.
Merci everyone. The light was very dim and most of my photos very so blurry. There was a delightful young couple that sat next to us from Australia and I had hoped to put them on the blog but the photos were all blurry. I loved this wall. I want it in my home!
Mary,
If we'd had food poisoning, I'd still be on the sofa in the apartment in Paris begging someone for a Coke with ICEI! HA ( Well, on second thought, I'd like to be back on that sofa! :)
Very cool. Do you remember the name of the place?
