I took these photographs of the sun setting on the Seine the evening I spent with photographer Meredith Mullins. As I pondered which to share with you today, I couldn't decide which I preferred. So today, un petit cadeau pour toi, enjoy the one you like best. I hope I never tire of this delicious view.

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.

They are both beautiful!
The first one for me!
Both beautiful but I like the first one the best.
Lovely...
The second photo is great with the colors on the water...
Great!
Greetings

I see why you found it hard to choose, Virginia!! They are both gorgeous, but I especially love the first one {if I had to choose ~ and I don't, hooray!}
All of the above...
;-)
Like Shell, I'm glad I don't have to choose, because like you I don't think I could. Thanks for posting both! And tire of this view? I'm certain that would never ever happen!
Don't MAKE me choose - both have beauty and your special pizazz. I like this idea - do it again cherie!
Oh I love those .. I have a thing for wrought iron curves ...
Je préfère la seconde.
A dilemma, for sure! Fantastic perspective on each. I love them both.
By golly I miss that city.
Definitely the first!!! And I must say...both are much more interesting pics of the this sight than the one I took on our day trip to Paris in November...Excellent Ms V!!!
Hard choice. I like the second one because the eyes are not stopped. I mean I like the second one as sunset and the first one as clear detail on “fer forgé” don’t know how you say it in English.
I refuse to make a choice. I won't surrender either. How could anyone ever gow tired of this view?
Both wonderful! I can't wait to try this...I did something similar from the windows of the Louvre but this so much better :)

I like both very much. I can't decide either!
