A late evening walk through Montmartre back streets.

Christmas still sparkles on the streets of Montmartre.

Above: an olive tree dressed in red fairy lights

Shadows lengthen on a lively cobbled lane that leads to the river.

Love on a wall.

Looking down onto rue du Nil on a rainy afternoon.

A labyrinth of streets to explore in the 2nd arrondissement.

A Left Bank street just before sunset.

Fall colors accent a Montmartre side street that leads to the last vineyard in Paris.

A gaily striped parasol in the 2nd arrondissement.

A favorite back street in the Latin Quarter. Where does it lead?

Narrow Rue des Coutures Saint-Gervais, once our home in the Marais, runs alongside the Hôtel Salé a.k.a. the Picasso Museum.

Turning a corner the steeple of Saint-Séverin shines in the background.

A priest on his way to a nearby church on a Marais side street.
