J'adore le carrousel à Hôtel de Ville! I have so many. What a delicious find that night in Paris. Actually I shot in January 2010 as well, but it at dusk. This time night had fallen, and it was even more magical. I'll bore you to tears with these.

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.

Awwww. Janet and I rode one on our first date. It's what we do on our anniversary if we can find one!
You could not bore me to tears with anything, V, I'm convinced! Let alone with a magical evening carrousel ride. That's something I want to experience...
Bonjour Virginia ~ J'adore le carrousel ~ this one is ever so pretty with it's lights glistening against the deep of the night sky. A pretty sight!

Salut Virginia!
En effet, ce carrousel apporte des bons souvenirs pour nous.C'est une belle image, et il est également gravé dans notre coeur pour sa douceur!

Love this image, V. The lighting at night is just divine... It is one of the few carousels I have seen in Paris with as many adults riding as children night after night.

What Shell said! And you have to love a carrousel as gorgeous as this—and adults riding it as well. Personally, I never hesitate, but only if I can ride a horse. ;~}
I wanna ride, I wanna ride! Virginia, please keep boring me to tears!!! This photo is beautiful -- I love the lights, it's almost like being there.
Magical, yes indeed.
A magical ride on a magical horse on a magical carousel on a magical night...Love it!!!
How many have you ridden?
There is something very special about the wonderful old carousel in Paris. I love watching them but I don't think I have any pictures of them at night. This is magical!
I hope I'll find a night carousel shot that I forgot about. :)
I just cannot get over all these carrousel's in Paris!! So romantic!
Pamela :)
Go ahead and try to bore me, V. I'll bet you can't do it.
Oui! Oui! Magique!
Beautiful
