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.

D'accord!
So pretty, Virginia, and I can appreciate this very much as the best I can do this week is climb into the middle of a forscythia bush ;) emailing you this morning~
What a terrific perspective to show off this grand lady of Paris.
She does look like she's wearing a skirt of roses, V. Very pretty!
Ah! she's SO pretty with roses at her feet.
Très belle!
What a jolie skirt for "La dame de fer!" -- Great shot, V.
Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Oh, Virginia -- the first time I visited France I took a photo from this very angle, with the bushes -- but there were no roses on them then! This is just stunning!
Just the way she should be!
She is a lovely charmer, Virginia. Nice composition.
Terrific shot. I love how it can look so different from so many different angles.
Mais oui, ma chère! (Almost looks like red and yellow roses on the same bush—très chouette.)
She's gorgeous, and majestic!
Dear Virginia, A lovely image. I wish so much I was able to travel with Andrea...one day soon.
Love and Hugs,
Karena
