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.

Interesting vanishing point. What a city and such a great area!
On last june 2015 I walked in the Marais with Peter. I had a lot of chance to be born in Paris. I lived over there till my 10 years and later in 1967 and 1968 - I miss Paris and I go to my City sometimes.
A wonderful street shot.
Wonderful photo Virginia!
A wonderful black and white street scene.
I completely understand why!
Very nice perspective - and yes I'm all with you in your love of Paris. I more rarely go now that I no longer have my parents.
When are we going????
Yup. I like walking the Marais, too.
