Today's photos were taken with Genie and Marie last June at Église Saint-Séverin, one of my favorite churches in Paris. This lovely enclosed courtyard adjoins the church. We all three had great fun trying to shoot through the iron fence!
Oh, yes! It was such fun to try to squeeze the cameras between the bars and angle our arms to the right position for a photo. And who would have expected such a colorful garden behind the church? Good memories ... Beautiful photo!
I remember that very moment, ma chere amie! I remember too how cool were the benches inside as I lay down to get the shots of the twisted columns inside... What a wonderful day that was... Wish you were here today with us in Paris!
One of the best things about photography for the photographer is the memories that the images stir! Nice hollyhock image today, but your recollections of the moment and the friends who were with you makes it best.
Jacob, HA! I knew that was coming but just wondered WHO! :)
Genie and M, so glad we got to have a good visit by phone today. I"m glad you've had marvelous weather and had so much fun. I hope your last day in Paris is the very best!!!
Jack, My Paris photos ALL bring back such wonderful memories. I cherish them all.
