ABOVE PARIS
CEMETERY OF MONTMARTRE
Winter weather in Paris is variable. the morning sun quickly gave way to light rain. However the temperature rarely approaches the lows we experience in New England.
SUNRISE IN PARIS
WHAT MORE CAN ONE SAY? GLORIOUS SUNRISE
DINNER FACING NOTRE DAME DE PARIS
Dinner next to Notre Dame with lifelong friends last night. Dinner was warm and charming, as it can be among friends. The view no less astounding.
THE CATACOMBS OF PARIS
It is difficult for me to know what to think of the Catacombs. I am fascinated, awed, humbled, terrified, and horrified all at the same time. The bones of six million dead, moved and stacked with great care; and then shown as a spectacle for everyone to see.
PARIS
I love Paris. The sights, the smells, the sounds, the food; even the language. French is my second language, I studied it starting at a young age and continued through college. I married a french woman, whose family embraced me wholly. I freely confess that I know France largely through their perspective, one I could never have known any other way.
How do I select the photos to represent this city where there is a new and exciting discovery on every corner.
The French love their language and enjoy playing with it, which they do well. The are proud of their country as well; that said the French have had a fascination with America since before the Revolution; which has never waned, despite the idea we have that the French do not like us.
