Me thinks Stuart was speaking tongue-in-cheek about the gosh-awful cold in B'ham today, but of course you were in Paris .... look at the door to the left!
Hi V. I love this. There are so many things going on. The first thing that strikes me is they way they are perched on the window sill almost suspended, then my attention is drawn to how engrossed they are in their food and finally the selfie. Mon Dieu such a strange fascination.
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.

You were in what country ?! Looks this could be B'ham.

Such a cute photo. F xxx
It is indeed a very cute photo. But, pray tell, why would that girl want a selfie of this expression and this scene? I'm missing something.
That is B.R.I.L.L.I.A.N.T!
