Postcards from Paris – Alexandre Bridge
These photos were taken with my iPhone so I hope you wont mind the graininess. But, this bridge and this view couldn’t be more Parisian. It was a beautiful clear night despite the cold and well worth the windy walk to see it at dusk.

Paris – Architecture
Surprise! I went to Paris. I am back and have finally finished going through all of my photos. I hope to post some interesting finds over the coming weeks. I do hope you will enjoy my journey!
Cee’s Fun Photo Challenge gave me inspiration to share my first Paris photo. That of a very unusual building called the Centre Pompidou in the 4th Arrondissement near Les Halles. (Hadn’t really figured out how to start so thanks Cee!) I am not sure this building is to my taste but I give the architects bonus points for having the moxie to build something like this in Paris! The building houses a public library, center for music, and a Modern Art Museum. (Appropriate.)

Black and White Challenge – Day Three – Statue
I accept the challenge to post five black and white photos for five consecutive days this week. They ask that we include our black and white and its original match and I threw in some extras for fun.
I was challenged by Indah Susanti over at http://indahs.com/ . Indah has a gorgeous travel blog specializing in underwater photography. I encourage you to check it out.
As part of the challenge I am encouraged to challenge another blogger I am connected to each day. Today I challenge
Crystal Trulove @ Conscious Engagement @ https://crystaltrulove.wordpress.com/ Crystal and I have a lot in common. Her energy and enjoyment of travel are reflected in her blog posts. Please check her blog out.
Below is a photo of one of my favorite statues, the Winged Victory of Samothrace housed at the Louvre. I think the black and white photo adds a certain amount of extra mystery to her. She is already magnificence enough. But the black and white adds a romance to the image. The other photos included in this post are from throughout France and Spain.

Below are some photos all taken in Paris of an icon, the Eiffel Tower. I love the striking yellow color of the tower. but the black and white, to me, is just as interesting and enjoyable to look at. The light and dark juxtaposed with the modern metalwork never gets old to me. I threw in some other sites in the city that I find the black and white adds a timelessness to the photo that maybe wouldn’t be there in a color version.
Something isn’t quite right about this place
I recall sauntering down a street in Paris attempting to take in all the sites and beauty the city has to offer. Paris is arguably one of the most beautiful cities in the world yet it is also obscure and unusual and interesting in a quirky sort of way. I am afraid the quirky side of Paris probably doesn’t get enough credit. I love this photo and love this building. If you walk by too fast you will never notice. But, if you stop and look at it a little closer you will see everything is crooked. I just love it. I think this business has a ton of personality and I am glad it stopped me in my tracks.
If you look close you can see my reflection in the window and Eric attempting to be patient with my obsessive photo taking…
