C'est moi! Well I have probably been accused of being crazy more than once in Paris!! I just loved these three gentlemen enjoying the afternoon together in a small park in the Marais.

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.

Hi Virginia, I'll take the one on this end - don't think he'll give me too much trouble. looks like he enjoys the quiet life.

To have time to sit with friends -- now that's the good life.
Oh, this is excellent. Our friend from Torino would approve.
Look at those precious faces! I wish all of the them good health and long lives.
Apparently, Blogger is having photo, I'm only getting half of the picture.
Fabulous faces .. well snapped
What characters you've captured! My dad is Italian - but he looks like he could be one of them!
Cynthia,
As you may know, the Marais is a very ethnically diverse area of Paris. I"m not sure any of these three delightful men is French. I just loved their faces!!! Thank goodness for my 18-200 lens!

They do have some fabulous faces! This shot is great, especially in b&w.
Wow, what a photo!! This is superb!
Hiker, is right !!!! I love it and I love their different poses. Then the B&W makes the difference ;-)
LOVE this one! Maybe I should not be afraid getting older!
Being french, Im pretty sure these men share Algerian roots. Algeria is a former french colony and there is a lot of Maghreb migrants since 60's in France...
