2014, 399 images, April, Au Vieux Paris d'Arcole, Bassin de l'Arsenal, CA, Friday the 13th, July, Moulin Rouge, Mug Shots, Musee Carnavalet Gardens, Notre Dame, Oroville, Paris, Place des Vosges, Pont de Bir-Hakeim, Pont Neuf, Reception, Rue Ravignan Stocking Store

Well it has been Forty Days since I got home from Paris, and all of this time I have been key wording the 29,684 photos that we took during our April 2014 trip! I have also finally narrowed down the images that I want to seriously look at to print for our up coming showing at Mug Shots, on the brick walls, during the whole month of July.  That narrowed down list now has 399 images in it and I have a date with the printer this Friday the 13th to go over what and how I want the final show images printed. Back to the salt mines as they say!

Our reception has been set for July 9th 5-7pm, 2014 at Mug Shots, 2040 Montgomery St, Oroville, CA 95965. Please join us if you can.

Here are a couple of images that we are thinking of printing!

Hoping that spring had actually sprung, today I was headed to the Marais and the Musee Carnavalet or the official name, Les Amis du Musée Carnavalet, beautiful gardens and museum! After that a walk over to the Place des Vosges and maybe lunch at Cafe Victor Hugo. After lunch pass through the Hotel Sully and then over to the Bastille area!

Colonne de Juillet, The July Column (French: Colonne de Juillet) is a monumental column in Paris commemorating the Revolution of 1830. It stands in the center of the Place de la Bastille and celebrates the Trois Glorieuses — the "three glorious" days of 27–29 July 1830 that saw the fall of King Charles X of France and the commencement of the "July Monarchy" of Louis-Philippe, King of the French. It was built between 1835 and 1840.
