How wonderful V. I shared a similar moment with my daughter at the Jardin Du Luxembourg many years ago. Thanks for bringing back such a wonderful memory.
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.

This girl makes me think of a strip cartoon of my childhood, "Caroline", by Pierre Probst!
Que de bons souvenirs au Luxembourg !
Merci pour cette belle photo pleine de charme.
à bientôt

She reminds me of a petite pirate!
Yes, looks like a little pirate with her ship
That would be the prettiest pirate on the high seas, but with that bandanna—I agree with Katie and Joe! Very nicely captured, V.
love
Could there be anything more charming than a child with a boat in a pond on a lovely day? I think not!
:)
A cute little girl captured at the right instant, Virginia.
J'aime beaucoup...

Complete with her pirate bandeau! She is pretty as a picture Virginia.
I think some of your best shots are of random children...
