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.

I have beaucoup admiration for musicians who play in the street V. It would not be an easy thing to do. Have a great weekend.
Rue Mouffetard is homey.
Alas, its blog readers are no fans of mine, which makes it less homey to me. But generally speaking, it is homey.
And it has good music!
A wonderful slice of life shot, Virginia.
You happened along at just the right moment, V—to get a great shot AND enjoy some music.
This is a wonderful little tranche de vie!
Encountering a guitar playing coffee drinker at a cafe is a nice bit of serendipity. (Hey! I even spelled serendipity right without the help of autocorrect!)
