Oh I hardly saw the lights. Thank you my sharp eyed readers! Charlie is part of the décor I think and not so much a part of the café itself. J'adore! V
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.

Ditto to Joe on the light fittings, dear V. And I wish I had those eyelashes! Extensions, here I come.
Seeing a familiar face would catch my eye too. Love the warm colors in this shot.
So many treasures to be found in Montmartre Virginia.
C'est bon!
Next time make a stop at Au Clarion De Chasseurs.
It's right on the square in Montmartre with the blue and white awning. It took my breath away.
Parisians do love Charlot! Moi, I'm also partial to those light fixtures.
