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.

The different lights in this photo look great!
This is just beautiful Virginia.
Very nice photo!
"Showstopper" is the perfect word to describe this architecture V.
Un ciel encore bleu.
The water actually looks alive.
So well done, Virginia.
quelle beauté , quel ciel, quelle seine !
beautiful!!!
Whenever I reached Hotel de Ville, my feet said, "Thank you. You are only six blocks from home base and you can make it." How I love this view and how it reminds me of many a time when we were close to the end of the day and we'd simply gasp.
I do now, looking at this!
I've always loved the Hotel de Ville, but have never captured it as well as you have here!
truly sparkling
Love the angle of this shot. Wish I'd have thought of it.
I have seen handsome photos of the marvelous Hotel de Ville, but I don't remember seeing night shots. Nice one!
My goodness, this is a lovely sight to see, Virginia. Thanks for sharing.
Adorable picture with amazing reflections!

It sure is Virginia, am I right in saying that the Hotel de Ville could almost be called an iconic building in Paris?
Damn it, VJ! Why do you make me so envious?! :>) (but I'm serious, my favorite cites are Paris and Santa Fe, with Charleston trailing behind.)
This photo is absolutely stunning! xoxo, B
Ooooo! Just magnificent and magical!
