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.

You always amaze me by your beautiful photos.
Unique framing! Beautiful
Love this photo! It's perfect. Nicely done, V.
In a word—wow!
Um .. there's a head on her foot .. is this the Paris South Park post?
People who feed the pigeons are aiding and abetting the problem. Nasty little parasites.
Get outta here. This is too brilliant.
Wonderful...
I can`t say anymore...
Greetings

Love this photo!!! You rock!!!
«Louis» will join the chorus in singing the praises of this photo!
Re the pigeons: the feathered rats need to be fed birth control pills!
Remind «Louis» to tell you the story about pigeons in the moyen âge....
No, you are not supposed to fed the pigeons! :-)
A wonderful and different photo of an extremely photographed place!
GORGEOUS!! It's like a dream, V. I always seem to miss the ET shots on the day they are posted!
ET Suz,
THey all have you written all over them. Maybe one pour toi on Sunday!
Peter,
I know. What is it about la Tour that makes me want to take all the tourist shots? I can't help myself! And of course I have more . :)
And as much as mon amie Dinah loves pigeons, sadly I'm not a fan either Louis.
Really a wonderful B&W photo!!
Bye
Dario
