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.

Hello. Have a good day! :)
beautiful light, well captured, Virg
An appealing shot- the light makes it so.
Wonderful shot Virginia!
As much as I love Paris I think your right about letting the flooding subside before going back. However, it wouldn't take much to talk me into buying some wading boots. :-)
I almost forgot to leave this link for you.
The red door that you love so much is the door of the house where Chateaubriand died in 1848. Now it's a historic monument.

James, proof that I'm oblivious most of the time when I'm snapping. I should have read where it was. Thank you for this information!
Lovely light in this shot.
