Café Nemours, one of my favorite haunts for wine or lunch at Place Colette, did not make the cut for the Paris Marathon this trip, but I did get this shot as we breezed past it last week!

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.

So much to and so little time. May be next time V.
I love these chairs! And your header is very beautiful!
Léia
Un seul client bien emmitouflé.
I really love your latest header photo!

But of course I will add to my list for next visit! Hope you are doing well? Thank you for gorgeous image as always..bisous Colette
Hi V,
I am thinking you never took the time to sit on this last trip!
Loved the picture of Marly in Roe.Cobblestones and all!
Thanks for the visit. We are moving when we return...ugh!
One can always count on at least a single steadfast soul on the terrace here. He looks as if he wonders what you are doing out, too. Nice perspective.
Virginia, excellent way of incorporating a little Paris rouge into this photo! Makes me wish I could sit down for a warm cup of coffee!
Virginia,
Beautiful shot... I love the chairs!
Pretty picture! It does look lonely out there. Great looking chairs. :)
It looks cold and lonely like that - perhaps a large coffee instead of just an espress today.
As Joe said, so little time! And I won't tell them you dissed them this trip, V. (Apparently you weren't the only one—the place looks unusually empty.)
Beautiful photo, V. I travel to Paris in March for another cooking class. I'll send you a "springtime" perspective of Café Nemours. :).
It looks like you did this trip on rollerblades, Virginia.
I thought it looked like Rue de Rivoli but I was about a block off. Lonely scene. I do not understand the economics of French cafes.
how many hours I have spent here, along with Marly....love this photo, it takes me right back~
The perfect photo for the next theme day!
I think you've lost your zest for Paris. There is ALWAYS time for a café.
