Rue de Courcelles
If you are walking in Paris and feel that there are eyes watching you,
just look up and you may meet the gaze of a lion,
or a giant,
or a horse,
or a nymph,
or a gargoyle!
They are everywhere you look.
If you are with children, make a game of finding animals,
characters, and faces in the architecture with a prize at the end of the day.

The French do seem to have a lot of different creatures looking down on you! I love the detail on this one. :)
Yes, that would be a great game to play with children. What a magical city!

He's beautiful. Details like this never cease to captivate me. Bon weekend, dear Genie.
Yet another thing to looove about Paris! (I hope you don't come home with a sore neck from looking in all directions -- not that I don't appreciate the results.) Bon rest of the long weekend to you --
I'm into gargoyles!
I like the lion you found. I have a weakness for taking photos of good carvings.
This guy looks like he's eating a rose.
Oh yes you are so right Genie, if you don't look up in Paris you miss way to many treasures. I played that game with Aimee, she's still my 'child' at 28 haha! Happy Sunday.
To me it has a very old world feeling to it.
Magnificent art work from a bygone era.
bonsoir Genie, j'aime beaucoup tes clichés en noir et blanc, c'est une belle réussite!

I like Paris-any time of the year-Christmas is one of my favourite times.
Wonderful royal-like lion. Love him. And i would want to play that game with or without children present. lol.
