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.

I wish all of my latches looked like this!
Snap! I got shots like that throughout Versailles ... I am trying to set up a Paris blog ... already deleted the first attempt ... how would you say 'walking the streets of paris'...I am going to try to be multi-lingual ... probably fall flat on my face, but what the heck!
Does that say "come in" or "stay out"? Just a beautiful work of art (the photo and the subject).
That is a unique latch design.

Jlulie,
I"m going to guess something like:Marcher les rues à Paris. That said, I will ask my tutor M. Dupre today when she comes and let you know. Bon chance avec votre (vos?) blog.
You should ask L Dupre, but I'd wager something like "errer dans les rues de Paris" would be close.
Thanks for the beautiful picture, V... I'm hooked!
Ooops "M" Dupre!
I have settled upon 'à pied dans les rues de Paris' which is on my sidebar. Do visit if you wish, just watch out for the ladders and dripping paint.
This really is a work of art, isn't it? (And your b&w of it's not bad either!)
Virginia, how do you ever get down a whole street in Paris, much less see all the sights you manage to see? You must be stopping every two feet to take pictures!
latch.. lock .. lovely
