- 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.

Messy.
B&W was the perfect choice for this scene. Love it.
Beautiful!
There are not enough words to describe how much I love this photograph.
Oh, this takes me back. It's so calming.
I don't know when you took this picture, but I have a very similar one I took last year in early February - more ice though I had....
LOVE the b&w treatment - it's so calming and soothing.
Ooooh, this is a good one, V!
Grab a rake. I'l start at one end and you can start at the other end.
A good shot, Virginia!
Great black and white V. Your image really magnifies the cold and loneliness of winter. J.
