While in Paris, occasionally I'm turned away from shops that won't allow photographs or run in to the pesky problem of cafés or stores that are closed. Pas de problème! I simply press my lens against the glass and snap away. This time, I got the benefit of a passerby, which made this photo much more interesting in my opinion.

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.

Good on you V. There is so much to see in this photograph.
Clever eyes, this composition is really great, you got perfect reflections!
Léia
Je vous envoie mon timide soleil afin que vous ayez un charmant dimanche... Gros bisous
I like the shadow of the person
and the floor is beautiful
I do this often and everywhere...
Me too! Sometimes it's a bit of a challenge but let's face it, that's part of the fun. I like your 'ghostly' reflection Virginia. Happy Sunday.
me too, I like anything w reflections
can not keep up with this gang stuff.. sunday bridges, sunday reflections.. who can keep this straight?
And I am guessing you bump into the "Fermé" sign more often au mois d'Août, n'est-ce-pas? :-) Very clever of you. Great shot! Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Splendid photograph! I love the reflection. Perfectly done. And i always wonder why some places won't let us take pictures. I'd be flattered if someone wanted to snap inside my establishment. Oh well... :D This is fabulous anyway, so phooey on them!
I agree with you, Virginia. This one is very good.
Delightful shot V!!! Perfect for James' reflections!!!
