Today my City Daily Photobloggers around the world are posting their favorite photo on this month's theme....RAIN right here.. It was a no brainer for me. I"m reposting one of my favorite photos taken from the second floor window of our favorite apartment on rue Saint Roch. It's also the cover photo of my book, Paris Rouge. If you'd like to have a look, the link is on the sidebar!

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.

I love painting scenes in the rain, especially the reflections on the ground. I have a whole file of people in the rain to refer to and just added this one to it. Reds and Pinks become almost day-glo intense on cloudy days.
perfection!
Love that pop of red! Lovely take on a rainy day for theme day.
Terrific choice!
This is a great photo for theme day!
Very nice.
You can post this whenever you like, V. One of my absolute faves!
I am happy that you reposted this wonderful and familiar photo of yours.
Excellent choice!
Perfect! And so very French.
I love this image! There is a photo of me, very similar, walking through Paris in the rain. Wonderful shot!
Perfect shot for the theme !
Falling rain isn't easy to capture. The red of the umbrella adds interest.
