jour cinq

hotel de sully

in le marais

the view from the hill

a few shots from montmartre

it was a hazy day so

the view of the eiffle tower

was not clear but plenty of roof tops

jour quatre

today we had a slow morning

leaving at 10:30 we headed up to montmartre

where i met sophie pasquet

my photo guide for the afternoon
i thought carmi could use the break

from the 1001 building quest

the main attraction

sacre-coeur

this neighbourhood is home to
artists, entertainers,
still windmills , steep stairs


and narrow streets!

one of my favorite shots

from pont de la concorde

i played with my photo in ps

and liked the poster edge filter the best

i found the post mark somewhere in

my "collage items" folder

added the worn photo frame

and gave it a tea stained overlay

getting closer
the reflection in a window
at 29 rapp
right next to the tower
and another favorite spot
pont alexandre III

despite the cooler weather
and the grey skies
we managed to walk 15 km
and i took 810 photos
arriving back home after 6pm
a special thanks to carmi
for being my personal tour guide
(the only thing missing was a french accent)
and being so patient with all my requests
to find some of the 1001 buildings
that i wanted photos of!!!!!

jour deux

today was flee market day

good thing carmi knew where we where going!!

it was worth the metro ride

to the top of the 18th

to experience the

les puces de paris, saint-ouen

some of the metal i bought today

i know these will be used as soon as i get home

i wish i could have these in my garden



after 6 hours at the market
we settled in our apartment
for a lovely dinner
