magic, my friend! I'm a sucker for this kind of photos and have loads of them - but what's so very special in this shot is the beautiful round table in the front, 'mirroring' the round mirror on the wall.... well done!!!
This is handsome! And I looked at your site (and keep eyeing Bistro de la Place.) Rick and I had a wonderful dinner there -- it was night and they showed Laurel & Hardy movies on the wall. My photo was lousy -- seeing yours brought happy memories!
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.

Another inviting Paris bistro.
I love the ambiance and I like the composition with the circular table and mirror.

Love the colors and textures and the quality of the light. And the reflection, of course!
Love the Parisian look ~ fantastic reflection photo ^_^
This is a subtle one, Virginia. You have to ease your way into this reflection thing.
Tout droit sorti du XIXème siècle sans retouche ! Il ne manque guère que l'absinthe sur la table pour faire illusion.
This is a fantastic image Virginia. Bon weekend
Your image evokes a nostalgic feeling...Lovely...
That's a great shot, wonderful composition.
