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.

A lovely atmospheric view through the half-clad tree. {If I was a "glass half-empty" gal, that would be a half-unclad tree.}
Wonderful perspective! Bon dimanche!!
Beautifully composed, V (and not so easy to play peekaboo with something that large)! Bon dimanche.
Nicely done V!!!
I bet that you would not be able to see Sacré-Coeur now from that vantage point as those branches will be full of bright green leaves. There are many positives to seasons with bare trees!

It is nice the way it is peaking out behind the trees, almost as if it were bashful.
My first close-up of Sacré-Coeur, was from behind it through some trees.
Una bellissima inquadratura.
