Even 'Parisian' Dummies Have Feelings

Paris Posters: Child's Play

Just Horsing Around

Blowing off steam for me means fooling around with my travel shots [which I'm sure you've all figured out by now .. there's been a lot of blowing off steam going on lately].. These poster creations hold special appeal as they allow me to be express my inner child!!... I just can't decide which colours and tones I prefer so here's a few choices..

I've been working on these images for a friend... and now have a bunch of ideas brewing in my head just waiting to get out if I don't get sidetracked onto some other distraction .. like Christmas which is moving up on us quickly!! 

So stop horsing around and get a giddyup missy!!

Have A Great Week Y'All

And don't forget to write your list for Santa!

Montmartre: Carousels & Accordions

Montmartre

Carousels . Accordions &

La Vie En Rose

IF la Vie En Rose is playing in your head right now .. then that's a good thing!! As that's what I'm listening to on one of those little wind up music boxes I brought home from Paris. And  that's what I'm hearing when I think of Montmartre... If you can find the quiet amongst the crowds, then you'll also find the magic. The story book Montmartre where the imagined is more tangible than the reality.. 

Lucky for me I found some quiet moments as I strolled along the alleyways.. recovering from my climb to the top of Sacre Coeur [see here].  Relax with a cafe creme.. or perhaps a gelati.. as you watch the carousel delight the children and the child within.. whilst listening to the bittersweet tones of a piano accordion somewhere in the distance. 

I'm in a green mood as we are finally having the perfect spring day!! Now that it is actually summer!! .. Spring saw the weather in Sydney fluctuate between 38c heat waves and cold damp days of 18c... Mix in a bit of torrential rain and that's what we've been experiencing.. They predict we are in for a hot and steamy summer... For now I'll just enjoy this perfect spring like weather and hope it continues this way for a bit.

Have A Great Weekend

And a big thanks to all who visit and comment!!

Each and everyone appreciated!!
