Protestant Lutheran Church Saint-Jean
Sitting on rue de Grenelle with a lovely garden,
a brisk walker might even pass it by.
In the spring the emerging green leaves and subtle shadows
bring life to a redwood, a birch, a sycamore, and a lime.
It looks like a storybook scene.

What beautiful church.
"Paris and Beyond" has been included in our A Sunday Drive for this week. Be assured that we hope this helps to point even more new visitors in your direction.

Black and White making it a little mysterious !
Such an inviting entrance!
Beautiful scene and I love how you describe it in color yet the photo is black and white. So creative.
You've captured simple elegance in this one.
How enchanting. You're right -- it does look like a fairy tale and the b/w is the perfect treatment.
I love the effect of looking at the steeple through the delicate branches. It appears that the leaves are just beginning to form, but I can't be sure. Love this one in b&w.
It is pretty, but also understated, as you'd expect out of a Lutheran church.
Harriet, the trees are just beginning to bloom with the brightest chartreuse shades seen in nature. Merci beaucoup.
Lisa, I appreciate your comment, an artists view.
Jerry, thank you kindly for the link.
Revrunner, I have not ever been inside but put it on my list as I would love to see the interior architecture, the "bones" of this church.
To all, may you have a productive, good week ahead!
Bises,

Love the way my eye is led right up that path to the church. Great shot!
You are right. This little church would be an easy one to overlook in the visual overload of Paris.
