Marly le Roi - Un, deux,trois

For the next few days a little mini series. In 2012, Mary and I made a day trip by train to Vaucresson to visit a blog friend. Niki drove us to nearby Marly-le-Roi to photograph. It's a charming small town just 11 miles west of Paris. I hope you'll enjoy visiting this week.

Orange et ocre

On a gray drizzly day in Marly le Roi, the ochre walls and orange shutters brightened this quaint little town.

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.
