A New Adventure...!

 
"Pizza, that-a-way..." Chartres, France 2012.

Hi friends, I'm excited to share some news...That Wondrous Time has a new home on Tumblr!  

The boxes are unpacked (mostly), and even though I still have some settling in to do, I just couldn't wait to invite you over. Why the move?  One BiG reason:  I get to share larger photos with you!  Please stop by, click, scroll, and make yourself at home.  I hope you'll enjoy the new view...!

Thanks for visiting me here these past few years.  I hope you'll join me on this new adventure, so please update your readers and bookmarks to my new blog address:

The Bevelry HIlls Art Show

The Beverly Hills Art Show, Oct. 20 - 21.  This weekend, take a stroll through the historic Beverly Gardens park and check out the work of more than 250 artists (including me!) I'm debuting a selection of new work and will be exhibiting more than 40 framed photographs, and nearly 100 matted prints! (Things have been nice and busy in my studio.)

You'll find me at Booth #214, located on the corner across from the dining and beer garden (should be a fun show!) This event has been a Beverly Hills tradition for 40 years, and I'm thrilled to be a part!

I hope to see you there, but if you can't make it, don't worry... I look forward to sharing snapshots from the show with you next week.

Thanks everyone, I hope you enjoy a wonderful weekend..!

Love, Paris

"Love, Paris" 2012.

The first photograph I shot while in Paris earlier this year.  Pretty much set the tone for our stay...

Two Sides of the Same Sky

 On our way to the castles we wound our way through many charming Bavarian villages.  When we spotted this little Kodak sign, Josh knew to pull over without me saying a word.  The sky played tricks with my camera, when in an instant the warm blues of spring fell into a cool winter's white.

Warm Welcome

Warm Welcome, Heidelberg, Germany 2012.

It was a rainy day in Heidelberg, and this hotel entry looked so warm and inviting... 

An Ideal Setting...

 Overlooking Schwangau Castle.  Fussen, Germany 2012.

A most ideal setting for a castle, don't you think...?

Black and White, Paris

Paris, 2012.

For Allison, on her 21st birthday. 
Someday, when you first visit Paris, I hope we're together so I can see you fall in love.  Paris will love you back, I just know it.

Our First Castle

Perched high above the city, Schloss Heidelberg was the first of many castles we visited in Germany.  With the earliest part of the castle being built before 1214, the castle has a fascinating history filled with destruction and renewal.  Walls of stone were worn yet rich with beauty, and each night as the sun set, they radiated a golden glow.

Germany, Our First Days

Bad Wimpfen, Germany (Top photo); all others Heidelberg, Germany (2012).

Although I shot these photographs in Spring, I think they provide this little blog a nice transition into Autumn.  My birthday is coming up in early October, and as a gift to myself I'm planning to (finally!) dive head first into photographs from our grand adventures in Germany, Austria, and France.

It's going to be a very happy week around here, and I look forward to sharing memories of our travels with you.  Wishing you a wonderful Sunday!
