Paris

What else can be said, really?

Thank you ever so much for your amazing comments and thoughtful words on the Giverny photos (and mine). It means a great deal that some of the essence of the garden and Monet's work came through in the photos so I appreciate your time in letting me know. I very much value your opinion.

I hope you have a wonderful new week!

  1. Oh!

    Beautiful!

    I love Paris - feel so lucky to have spent time there myself, and the one thing I always say to people is that it is hard to find the words to describe it. Your images capture the magic of the city! xo

  5. Georgianna, your pictures are a dream ! They capture - besides the widely-known landmarks- the atmosphere, light, perfume and magic of Paris! That is great art of photography - again. I have tears in my eyes with "Paris-sickness" - and I am only some 700km away, so I better make plans.
    LaDurée....I'm coming.....

  14. You have the spirit of Paris in every photo--La Vie en Rose! We just returned from a visit there ourselves. Are you already wishing you could go back like we are?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Paris or rather France would be right at the top of my wish list to visit but my husband says he has no desire to go there. I don't see his point on that one. As usual you brought Paris to life for us in your beautiful pictures. V

    These images captured with your talent should be made into postcards.

  63. We all know that Paris is beautiful. We've all seen so many pictures that a city we might never have visited still seems familiar. But you? You make it new. And fresh. And beautiful. And romantic. And lovely in a way it has never been before.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Dear Georgianna, yesterday I saw Woody Allen's movie and I'm preparing a small posting. Is it ok with you if I use 3-4 of your pictures of this posting, linking back to your blog of course? I would be extremely happy if you would allow me to, and I totally understand if you would not.

Thank you so much for your visit and comments! I do my best to respond to everyone but with my travel schedule and other commitments, it might take me a few days. Thank you for being patient!
