Despite gray skies and some fog, our trip to Chateau de Chantilly with friends Anne and Owen Phillips was delightful. The Musée Condé has a magnificent collection of paintings. It's worth the trip just outside of Paris.

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.

Bonjour,
Je suis certaine que ce fut une visite intéressante...
Gros bisous
Virgina: Very nice photo with the tree colors and that cold northern light. I have been once and plan to go again this coming April. It is so easy to get there and one can plan to go at the last moment in order to take advantage of good weather.
A wonderful shot!
Richard Ewen, nice to hear from you again. I have more shop windows when you need them! Glad you will visit the Chateau there. If you'd like to meet my friend Owen, let me know. He loves cemeteries and we've visited many together.
