Ah, Paris!

He who contemplates the depths of Paris is seized with vertigo.
Nothing is more fantastic. Nothing is more tragic.
Nothing is more sublime.
~Victor Hugo

If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.

These are wonderful works of art. Brigitta really captures the magic of the city.

Interesting that many of them have the Eiffel Tower in the background; all you have to do is see that and you know where you are.

Loved the Le Splendid sign in the Winter in Paris piece...very effective.

And, lastly, it seems that a lot of people are up at Midnight in Paris. :-)

These are lovely. I especially enjoyed Night Walking. Makes me want to BE there, go up the step lit by those warmly twinkling lights to see what is around the corner...
