I had my euros tight in my fist as I made my way down the steps at the Sacre Coeur. Just after I took this picture from above, he stopped, put up his harp and probably went for a coffee. I'm sorry I didn't get to hear him play!

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.

Very rare to see a harp. I don't think I've ever seen a busker with one.
Bonjour chère amie,
Un instrument au son magique...
Jolie photo.
Gros bisous ♡
The harp is such a magical instrument V.
Magic place :)
Quel dommage! But you did get a good picture at least.
Wonderful capture. I'll bet it was beautiful!
Beautiful photograph! From his winter clothing, I assume it was a cold day. I wonder how he minimized, or compensated, the effect of the cold temperature on his strings and the wood of his lovely instrument. Leslie in Oregon
