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.

Very poetic picture !
Beautiful silhouette of curves and lines that could only be one place ... Paris.
A lovely way to show some of Paris' special architecture. Isn't the expression, "Mettre en valeur"?
Just one giant big gasp -- how lovely!
Oooooo.. love, love!
I really should go in someday.
En argot, on l'appelle "La tour pointue".
Ahhhhh. Virginia, this is such a gorgeous portrait of the essence of Paris. Takes me right back.

Oooh, nicely done, V! Plenty of "pointy-topped doo-dads," as our friend Shell would say.
What a beautiful timing !
I can imagine the gasp and the expression on your face when you looked up and saw that sky.
