About Me

- Birmingham, AL, United States
- I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
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.

Une très belle photo aux mille couleurs...
Gros bisous
What a beautiful night scenery :)
Beautiful! I just realized that I have never enjoyed the view from the top of the Centre Pompidou in the evening.
What a great photo Virginia, when you pull it right in there is just so much going on, ah a typical evening in Paris I guess. Have a lovely weekend.
I wonder what it would be like to live in an apartment with of view of the Centre Georges Pompidou?! I like the evening lights and lighting in this photo!
Bon weekend, V!
I like the hints of people activities
Virginia, I can't stop looking at this photo ... The colors, the reflections, the architectural angles ... Love it! You make me want to visit it ... On the
Ist for next time (maybe you'll be with me!)
I like this picture a lot.
Love the purple tint of the lighting!
And love your new banner shot!!!
OH it looks like a fun , festive place!!
You've captured so much in this shot, V—and yet the thing my eye is drawn to is the beautiful blue sky. C'est vraiment l'heure bleu!
The colors you have captured at this magical time of day are an exquisite contrast to the bright midday sun. Wish we were there right now!
Bises,
G
I love it and what great reflections!
Una suggestiva immagine notturna.
Molto bella!
