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.

Hi V ... Thanks for making me laugh. A sense of humour is a fabulous thing ... A bientot J.
I saw a similar sight a few days ago!
Duncan in Kuantan

They don't care whose heads they use those pigeons
THIS is the stroke of a GENIUS Vi; made me howl with laughter and nod like the pigeons in my garden... :)
Hilarious, wonderful, quirky, ENGLISH...., never go out without your p-hat!!!! Oh, how I love this!
You know dear friend that the French have a frequently used phrase (quote) with pigeons in it?
When you're taken as an idiot or your intelligence is challenged, a French will tell you:
Have I got PIGEON written across my forehead?
I love that expression dearly and use it frequently in my daily French life. (I wonder why?! :) - or no, I don't)
Thank You for the laugh, dearest
*Kiki*
Ha! This cracked me up! The golden statue is beautiful (avec ou sans pigeon)!
"You may leave your hat on "(Joe Cocker):o)
At first I thought it was a crow.
All she needs is the frock and she's ready for a London wedding. Thanks for the giggle, V!
Guillaume, I thought so too but then don't remember ever seeing crows in Paris. I'll leave that call to the Parisian here.
V
You could have taken this photo at l'Hôtel de Ville and gotten it with the pigeon on the head of real person.
Virginia, she has forgotten something else, too.
... but only if you are topless...
LOL! I hope the pigeon didn't have to 'go'. :)
