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.

So lovely. Something about grown-over shutters that I love. You too, obviously ...
The Autumn tones seem to support your theory that these shutters have been closed for sometime. PS Nice the way they have your name printed along the bottom. đ
This would make a great jigsaw puzzle!!!
Apparently! What a lovely image, V.
Definitely not. You wonder what it does to the building in the long run.
And it would be a shame to start now !! Lovely, dear V. x0
It makes for a very nice design though. Good work.
We're off on "vacation" for about 7 weeks, so I apologize in advance for the scarcity of comments to PTML and BDP, and responses to comments on ADP. Keep up that good work.
This is wonderful. It could be the starter prompt for a short story!
Your image today, VJ, corresponds well with that posted by Jilly. Hers is curtained, yours is shuttered. Both hide the busy-body of the village, perhaps ... off to find my Boo Radley image this arvo ...
If I'm not mistaken, that vine is a Virginia Creeper.
