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.

love the way the light casts the shadows amplifying the gorgeous facade
Pas de fantôme au Louvre, silly French Girl :-) (I guess it was late and I thought I was looking at another Parisian building :-)
Veronique, That's funny! You got your fabulously gorgeous Paris buildings mixed up!

What keeps me loving Paris??? The architecture is one of the things and you have presented it here with an air of mystery and magic, bien sur.
Hi! This is just so BEAUTIFUL!!! And thanks for your nice visit! The only trick about the bubbles must be the shutter speed. I used around 1/320. I'm your newest follower and I believe we have the love of Paris in common. I LOVE to travel there :) Hope you have a great weekend!
