Excellent image, Virginia. Have you noticed that since you changed your blog's color theme, nearly all of your photos have been amber and black? The power of suggestion . . .
I couldn't wait to see the photo accompanying the title efaC... wondering what those letters could possibly mean....you are just too clever! Starman must be a 'connaisseur' of the bus system -- I definitely recommend it.
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.
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.

Aha (which works in both directions)—Le Nemours, a particular fave of mine too. Vey nicely composed, V!
It's also the Palais Royal bus stop for the 69 bus.

The glow of the neon on the dark day makes the interior so inviting!
