About Me
- Virginia
- 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.

Beautiful shot. Trees are great to hide behind! Especially beauties like these. I wonder if she photographed you!
Yup, too many photographers around. (oh, sorry)
Yikes—it's like looking in a mirror! Another obsessed photoblogger, I presume.
I'm curious also. Did she get your photo?
WEll I'm fairly certain this was a gentleman, and probably was not as interested in photographing me. That said, I thought about approaching him and having a chat......but didn't.
This is just a little bit creepy, Virginia. Was he offering the kids candy?
Those trees are gorgeous!
And the photog's not bad either ;)...
heee...
Have a great weekend, dear Virginia..

Vive le stalker! All of us!
I'm with Jack on this one... ;)
I thought it was a man when I first saw him, and though it may have been perfectly innocent, it bothers me. Good shot by you, of course, hold onto it!
I suppose I suspect anyone at a park playground who is there without children because of something that happened to me as a child, and a heinous act in a community north of us last year. Nothing more precious than children. xo
