Today is the first day of the month, and I join my City Daily Photobloggers around the world who are posting their photos on April's theme..... The Beauty of Simplicity. In a city that is so fabulously over the top with architectural details and grand beauty, it was a daunting task, but I chose this serene scene taken from a bridge. The autumn trees along the Seine.

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.

Isn't it wonderful that CDP bloggers today found so many terrific images of nature to illustrate the theme? The colours of the trees and the uniform line make a splendid photo.
The repetition, the great texture of the bark, the color of the leaves.....you've done it again - another great photo!
You chose the perfect shot Virginia. How lovely it would be to walk along here.
Good choice, Virginia, I like the repetition of the trees and that little man.
Wonderful image! I expect van Gogh to appear at any moment and start painting.
The simplicity of nature always wins.
Those trees certainly do spark the imagination, Virginia.
Lovely!
Ah, yes. A very fine and simple image.
This is the perfect opportunity to post a lovely photo like this.
A fabulous interpretation of simplicity
The man on the picture give a minimal simplicity very beautiful
