My Happy Place

Wandering the streets in the Marais.

Beautiful faces captured at the Medici Fountain, Jardin du Luxembourg

Sunday Church Series - Église Saint-Eustache

This beautiful Gothic church, built between 1532-1632 is one I would highly recommend. I love the church itself, but outside the contemporary sculpture, Écoute, is a favorite of mine as well. 

Entrez

This arch welcomes you to the Place des Vosges. Take a few minutes, or longer, to relax on a bench in the park, then stroll around the arcades and window shop or stop for a glass of wine at the cafés and restaurants.

Wonky

I learned a long time ago from my friend Eric Tenin, that giving Paris' landmarks a different slant was a good thing!.

Only in Paris. I love street photography and loved this as I have two fabulous pugs who live in my building and also Einstein, my grandpug.

Harry's New York Bar ....Paris

Harry's New York Bar, probably the only place in town that doesn't serve wine. That's works for me, bring on the Jack Daniels!

Fruits de Mer

Love the seafood stands that you often find on the streets. So beautifully displayed. Love the oysters!

Through The Lens

I have always loved photographing through these unusual windows of the Musée Carnavalet. Usually, I like them in color, but this one seemed to work in BW for a change

Curbside seating

 In the summer months, Paris cafés often throw open the door for patrons to enjoy the breezes.

Here's the church, here's the steeple

In 2013,  la Sainte Chapelle, one of the most beautiful chapels in Paris was having a little work done.
