I've probably walked up this street in Montmartre many times but don't think I'd ever stopped and admired these doors.

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 suspect that they have guarded the entrance of this dwelling for a very long time Virginia.
Ce type de porte vitrée avec une protection en fer forgé se rencontre plutôt dans les pavillons de banlieue, par contre, les deux poignées laissent supposer qu'elle est très souvent empruntée. On remarquera à gauche, un repère de nivellement et à droite un "décrottoir", accessoire en voie de disparition.
Bubbles (bravo!!), autumn colours (fall colors), doors, kids... Sorry, if I'm not here often, but now I took the time. You are really a master of catching atmospheres!
They're quite pleasing to the eye.
This is gorgeous!
Makes you want to open those doors and walk inside.
Classic, V—
Wonderful!
I'm looking for some sandpaper and steel wool. I think I could bring that back to life . . .
