In June 2009, our apartment had the spectacular view of the Val-de-Gras church from our windows. I attended services there on two occasions, something I will never forget. While sitting in the back of the church before the services began, I noticed this lady and quietly snapped her photo.

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.

Not exactly crowded.
A perfect place for reflection.
She clearly was having a religious experience.
I saw the light. (And that made me stop).
I like this. Both the composition and the atmosphere it creates.
This lady looks like she has a halo around her Virginia, such a lovely Sunday image.
she has a halo!! how perfect for the setting.
She seems angelic!
