My fascination with the candles and chairs in Parisian churches continues.

About Me

- 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.

Nicely captured the contrast between the wood and the light
I can hear the parishioners whispering V.
C'est si belle!

Sheila, Thank you and I just left a comment on your blog. I"d love to talk with you more about your French students. V
«Louis» used to live right down rue Saint-Antoine from this church... With this and the previous post, you are in his old "stomping grounds"!
Virginia, you and Genie should link your always delightful Sunday church posts with the inSPIREd Sunday meme!
The sanctuary looks appealing like this, Virginia.
Les cierges tendent à disparaitre au profit de ces petits lumignons dans des verres de couleurs. Les curés ont du faire une étude de marketing...
What a great photo of this impressive candle stand!
Bon dimanche, V --
The brown and orange palette is striking, isn't it?
I like how they've provided a place for "drinks"!
Very nice picture!
I love this church. This photo makes me love it more!
