Square du Vert Galant

Square du Vert Galant

This little tear-drop of green is not exactly a secret place, 

but it is most often photographed from the other direction

(as seen in my banner photo above).

The view from Pont des Arts gives the illusion 

of a ship's bow.  You can access this little park

at the midpoint of Pont Neuf.

La Seine en hiver

The Seine in Winter

Taken from almost the same spot on Pont des Arts as my header 

the starkness of winter stands in contrast to the lush, colorful shot of summer.

I find a still, almost silvery beauty 

of the river in winter.
