Guest BookYes, I still have a guest book, extending back twenty-nine years. How often do you see guest books these days? I originally closed the guest book due to spam in 2014. With the renovation of my site now, I’m working on a way to allow new signatures without being overrun with spam again. Here are the existing 1,283legitimate signatures. Came across your site whilst researching for new book. Could anyone tell me the location of a luxury yacht marina as close to Paris as possible. great site. — Brian Tripped across your website..loved the videos. Gave a realistic slice of regular vs. tourist experience. Much more like a local showing you around than a tourism board travelogue. Thanks for the effort you put in...wanted to let you know "real" people are checking your stuff out. Thanks!! — H Johnson Love France — Kim Very informative site but I cannot get into some of your photo areas. Just got back to Malaysia after a week in Paris and am using your site and information to confirm my bearings, Thank you , Jim — James I decided to sign in before I read any further. I found your blog "Ordinary Paris" quite by accident. I was so bored, I decided to read my Bing home page. (Yes, that is how bored I was.) One thing lead to another, and suddenly I was consumed with reading anything that had to do with committing suicide by jumping off the Eiffel Tower, which, naturally enough, lead to your blog. Cut to: 3 hours later: I am consumed with finding out anything I can about Orange and your internet problems. I am still reading the year 2009 so I expect this endeavor to take the rest of this year and probably most of the next. I'm not complaining. I am having a great time. I think if hadn't found you here, I might have committed suicide myself. I thought maybe I would jump into the LA River and I could drown, but then I remembered that there is no water there. I suppose I could jump off the Hollywood sign, but I fear landing on top of Madonna, or some other sharp edged surface. Suicide shouldn't have to hurt. (Insert obnoxious smiley face here.) — Scott Hi Anthony! I miss the many times you have shown me around Paris...and haven't we had some great days? I hope you still have an annual pass to Disneyland. Reading some of the other comments here has made me miss Paris - particularly the comment about the Heloise and Abelard tomb at Pere Lachaise - remember the great photo you took of me and Alexandra on one of the times we went there? I am so glad you are still guiding people around Paris - you are so good at it, and you put all the other guides to shame. Believe me, when I was a flight attendant I heard horror stories from my pax leaving Paris, but everyone I referred to you has always given me glowing reports. This is such a terrific site and I always find something entertaining and illuminating when I visit. My very best wishes to you. — Tereen Hough Great site. Clearly a labor of love. I appreciated your ebook on the Paris Metro. I am directionally challenged, and have a rather tough time with bus and train schedules, and getting on or off at the right place, at the right time. I recently ended up on the wrong line in Chicago on Metra, and they had to make an unscheduled stop, just for my idiot self. Embarrassing. I'll be taking a train from the Gare de Lyon soon, so I'll have a couple of hours to kill. Thanks for the tips! — J.B. Upright What a refreshingly straightforward and unpretentious website. Thank you for the ESL materials - as is no doubt obvious from my address, that's what I was looking for (well done IT sheets, thanks!) If only the rest of the web (and its users) were equally welcoming and helpful. — Cecily We will be in Paris at the end of July for our 50th anniversary, so I was doing a little research. I found you through the Promenade Plantee article in Wikipedia! This is a wonderful website. The rude comment by the last person provoked me into signing your Guest Book. — Sandra Greer You've evaded your landlord from evicting you for non-payment. You continually post about how you're "so poor" and yet you spend €18 at a restaurant that's one step above McDo and say you'll go back? You bitch about Chinese tourists who push in front of you in line, which is a French pastime and call them rude. You're a bigot. No sympathy from me. You're just another immigrant that contributes to this country's slide into poverty. Go back to the US where deadbeats like you are welcome. — Sabine Reply: I think you may have typed your location incorrectly—according to my logs, you were posting from Texas, USA, not Paris, France. I've corrected the typo. It does leave me a bit confused about which country is sliding into poverty, who the real immigrants are, and which country you are suggesting a return to, however. — Anthony Je t'aime Paris. — John Otchis Hi Tony - Your site is really awesome. Camilla and I have been to Paris many times and you get the ambiance just right. Perhaps you could include more references to Napoleon? — Charles Battenberg perfectly. It informational resource, I'll bookmark it and visit it again! — Julia One of the best arranged sites on Paris I've seen on the web. Engaging, easy going writing style, honest opinions on the City of Light. Loved the website! — Pruitt Hall Nice site Anthony. I have visited Paris many times and your pictures are great... I loved the Paris street scenes.Good luck :) Cheers — Tharikh I've spent 2 hours on your site and have just scratched the surface. After reading some of the information, maybe I'll consider Paris, although I've never seriously considered visiting anyplace in Europe. Well, maybe Ireland. I guess I got spoiled being in Japan while in the Air Force. While there, we tried to live "on the economy" as much as possible. Your site is great and I will look at it in it's entirety. — Thomas C Atkielski wow, i haven't spent as much time in preparing our family trip to europe at any other web site than i did on yours! Thank you for the useful information. I have copied some bits of it and pasted it in my Microsoft OneNote application. I use this app to collect all sorts of bits of info for our trip. I considered making use of your personal guide service but would not require a full day's service unfortunately. perhaps you could consider shorter periods as well... perhaps a 1 hour face-to-face consultation to provide personal advice once we are in Paris?I'm sure to visit your pages again as our December trip approaches. Now to find a place to stay.... — Andrew I studied this site before going to Paris for 6 days, awesome site! I was able to prepare for Paris by checking your website. By the way, do you mention anywhere on the site about needing money to pay for the bathrooms? That was interesting! Good luck to you! — Kim T. I have been following your wonderful website for years. It has been a great source of enjoyment and ideas for new things to see on future trips to Paris. I love that you have been adding videos and especially enjoyed the new one on Pere Lachaise cemetery. My favorite tomb there is that of Heloise and Abelard, the lovers separated during life and finally reunited many years later here at Pere Lachaise. Thanks for sharing all your photos and videos. — Larry Parton Hi Anthony, I just discovered your site by looking for the Promenade Plantee. I LOVE your video of the Paris Street Furniture, thank you so much. I've been taking photos of similar things in Melbourne, but a video is so much better, you have given me new inspiration. I love Paris too, but only get to visit rarely as I'm so far away in Australia, but I was there in 2011. Your site brings it all back to me. All the best, Inge. — Inge Very enjoyable! (from a fellow francophile) — Kimberly Graziano Excellent site. I enjoyed the videos and as I am visiting Paris in early June, it provided plenty of useful information. — Ralph Vuono It has been several years since I visited your website and it is still an extreme pleasure. It is without a doubt the best website I have ever visited and my guess is that I would be hard pressed to find one to equal it. My wife and I have not been to Paris for about four or five years and age will probably prevent us from visiting your beautiful city again. I became 91 on my last birthday in November, 2011. We envy you and God Bless. — Irvin Hollinger Thank you so much for the information offered on this web site, I am a Chinese girl who is very interested in Paris culture, I think your web site is excellent. Thank you again, and may you happy! — Qianru What a fantastic accidental discovery! Thank you so much, Anthony, for your beautiful pictures and videos of my favorite place in the world. They bring back so many wonderful memories of my visit to Paris 2 years ago with my husband. I will return to your web site often. — Janice Thank you for your website Anthony. I'm planning a weekend in Paris with my husband to celebrate a significant birthday & it's proving extremely useful. I'm afraid we won't be hiring your services as a guide but you can be confident we will be benefitting from your evidently vast knowledge & experience, so thank you again. — Naomi I love your site! It provides excellent insight into all one needs and wants to know about Paris. I have never been to Paris, but am planning a trip there next April. I don't know much French, but will be learning before I arrive. It has been a dream of mine to go to France for a long time so this is quite exciting for me and your site has been exceptional! I still have so much more of your site to explore and look forward to it very much. Thank you for taking the time to create your site, especially for people like me who want as much information as possible before taking the trip (I don't really want to look like a tourist). :) — Holly I used your site as a source for my research paper! Thanks for the great information and help!! — Sydney McDaniel Hello. I was referred to your site for the WWV emulator. Very nice. Now I'm curious as to why you wrote it? What do you use it for? (I want it to help track satellites). Thank you for making it available. Best wishes, Jay — JAY wtf ?!? no Paris blog posts since August? Git crackin' or a swat team roping down from black helicopters is your fate. Post something!! - ... GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!! — Hillary A site that has the periodic table on it, is always worth a further look! I came to this site because I was researching Paris for a wok of fiction. I'm looking forward to browsing some more here. Thanks! — Su Hi, Anthony, I like this site very much and get a few laughs here and there. You said "Also, I like Paris ... but not necessarily Parisians. Two different things. — AA" I know exactly what you mean. I felt the same about Florence. I lived there for 2 years and I loved the city even more than Paris, but not the people. (I am talking about Florentines, not Italians.) They made me crazy. I realize they had been made crazy themselves by the hordes of rude tourists there so it wasn't really their fault. The French seemed so much more pleasant when I came here from there to visit, so I moved to France. I have no complaints. As much as I miss Florence, I know we wouldn't get along, so I don't dream to move back there anymore. An American Woman in Paris — Frances I appreciate your website and will definitely look further into your guide services. Thank you for being straight forward and honest. — Sarah Hall POST something, you indolent Parisian schmuck! (cackle!) — Hillary Hi Anthony,I enjoyed reading your home page - I'm impressed with the variety of interests you enjoy. — Rose I propose not to wait until you get enough amount of cash to buy all you need! You should get the mortgage loans or just car loan and feel yourself comfortable — Dolores Reply: I don't have a house or car; in fact, I don't have much of any property left, so there's nothing to sell. — Anthony Hi Anthony, I'm getting ready for a trip to France in early May (Paris & the Loire Valley), and found your site while looking for info on non-French food. My husband is a "snout-to-tail", adventurous eater, and I'm not. Actually, I'm a cranky person, and am going to attempt to adjust but also know that I'm going to end up eating many baguettes & cheese. Just in case I have a food breakdown knowing where I can get something American-like will give me piece of mind. So, long way of saying why I'm here. Thanks so much for the information. I'm sure it will help me be less crabby at dinnertime. — Greta Hello Anthony, I first had a look at your page several months ago and enjoyed it so much I bookmarked it for later. My husband and I have visited Paris and absolutely fell in love with the place. Unfortunately it's not likely we'll ever get back there again so it's nice that we can visit via your page whenever we like. Thank you so much and especially for the beautiful photos. Seeing all the places we remember from when we were there brings it all back again. You're a darling.I'm sure the 1,000,000 visitors to your website all say the same thing.Please don't ever close your site down.Auv Revoir xx — Lila Hi Anthony, I came across your site a few weeks ago while researching for my upcoming trip to Paris in May (for the first time!!) I really enjoy all the pictures, history, and commentaries! I also enjoy reading your blog and watching the videos you posted. Thank you so much, and the information I've gained is really useful for my trip!! — Alice Why do you live in Paris when you seem to hate all things French, hate the city, hate the people? All you do is complain, complain, complain about what you find wrong with the city, the people, their way of life. Every post I've read from you, every single one, complains about Paris. Why do you stay? And don't tell me you "love" Paris. Clearly, you don't. — Claire Reply: I'm very poor. When you're poor, you tend to be irritable and complain a lot. If I were poor in another city (say, Austin), I'd probably be even more irritable, but Paris is a good place to be poor, as large cities go. Also, I like Paris ... but not necessarily Parisians. Two different things. It's possible to be very happy in Paris if you have lots of money, which isn't true for most cities. — Anthony Hello Anthony. I came across your web site while searching for a picture of a "vespasienne". The additional comments were so informative, that I literally ended up spending nearly an hour reading some of your other posts. As a French, I've been to Paris several times although living in Tahiti, French Polynesia, about 10,000 miles away, in the Pacific Ocean. Yet, thanks to your work, talent, very informative comments and your outstanding pictures, I feel like I am discovering a new Paris...its beauty and charm unveiled through the eyes of a "foreigner", (someone born with another culture). Thank you so much, it has been an absolute joy reading your blog. La qualité de vos interventions auxquelles s'ajoutent de merveilleuses photos emplies de sensibilité, est remarquable. Je vous souhaite tout le meilleur et une très bonne continuation. Merci encore. — Billy what a wonderful page you have here!...i am still dreaming one day that i would go visit paris....one day my dream will come true...I don't think i would want to live there (or anywhere) if i did not have a command of the language...you know? merci beacoup. — Rose Stern Found your site while looking for references for an article I had to write for a Business class. I referenced your experience at the McDonalds at Disneyland Paris. We are discussing the issues that may come up from having businesses in other countries. — Eric just browsing how to best tour Paris independently and came across your site. I'm still building our itinerary so not ready to do anything yet. I was trying to find a pic of you in the site but no luck. tnx — Jess We are planning a visit to Paris in the fall of 2011. Your site if very informative and well managed. Thank you, Steve — Steve Otlewski Thank you for blogging again. I have been reading your blogs and exploring your site for at least three years and seems like more. I have always enjoyed the pictures you have posted and learning about Paris through the commentary on your blogs. The videos make your blog even more interesting. Please keep making videos and entries on your blog. Thanks again. — Bon I've been reading your web page for 3-4 years and enjoy all that you write about and your photographs (of course!!) I've been fortunate to have visited Paris 3 times and hope for more visits in future. Airfare is so $$$! I've never liked big cities but, oh, Paris is different! I love it,the good & not so good. Thanks for sharing parts of your life -I hope the eviction problem goes away -You deserve a break.. — LeeAnn Someone is always reading the Paris blog, n-w - it's just that nothing appeared to post after Friday, November 5, 2010's "Heat 'n Hu" until just recently - like they were "stuck" somewhere or something. All the more recent posts after that seem to have just appeared all at once in the last week or so. Be sure to post the court decision and details after the March 1 date. Keep walkin' & GO HILLARY!!!!! — Hillary Glad to see you are again writing on your blog. I have been checking frequently for new additions. It was frustrating to see only "Heat and Hu" for such a long period of time. I enjoy reading about life in Paris. Would like to visit one day. — Bon Thank you Anthony. I'm going to be in Paris on my honeymoon this March and your website answered some questions for me. — Brittani Larson Hey Anthony. Nice web site, I found it by browsing peoples home pages. You seem to have a good thing going on here :o)Thanks, — TerryFW Post somethin' - ya' lazy PUTZ! — Hillary Jesus! This site is full of self indulgent crap! Dude, you are a pathetic americunt! — Deccan Salut Anthony ! After visiting the High Line Park in New York City last week I searched the web to see if they had taken the idea from La Promenade Plantée in Paris (I still don't know) as I am going to write a post about it on my blog. There was a link to your site under Viaduc des Arts and so I came over to read about it. I also read your comments about the strikes in Paris and the media. You are absolutely right. I read the news in French then see those same news on the TV here and they are sometimes very different. You have a lot of material on your site. I'll come back to read more.Amicalement, — Vagabonde Hi Anthony - I am a letterpress printer and publisher - I use antique lead type and ARAB platen presses to produce handmade books by Kiwi writers. There aren't many people doing this these days. I'm 51 and learnt my trade in the 70's/80's before letterpress dissapeared. So - Ive been doing a job for a local art gallery. Im printing 'Dr. jekyll and mr. Hyde' with a local artist who is making 10 ilustrations. Im printing the title page/contents/copyright etc and Im using your version of Dr. jekyll for the text. As a compositor I'm really 'impressed' (sorry!) by your layout/comping etc of dr. jekyll. Im only using from the first page of text to the last - no acknowledgements with your name/addresses/details etc as per the security instructions on your PDF. The artist is jason greig - Would you like a finished copy of the book. It'll be handbound with embossed titles in Foolscap on lovely paper. Regards Rob lamb and The Gumtree Press. Dunedin New Zealand. — Rob Hello! Thanks for this beautiful site. Your street scene gallery is gorgeous. I haven't had time to look at much here, but what I have seen is excellent and is a great help to me because I'm teaching a basic French course to middle and high school students. Warm regards, — Shannon what a great job on your site. it was very imformative as i am going to paris in November 2010 and i am soo scared. I am not sure what to expect but this helps so much! — Linda Great site! I was an exchange student in France while in high school and have been back quite a few times since. I loved it every single time, regardless of where my travels brought me during each visit. I work in the airline industry as well and was quite excited to find so many of my favorite topics displayed on one site :) I'm hoping to return again next spring and I have your page bookmarked for a Paris refresher tour of things I might have missed in my younger days, lol. A quick question for you if you have the time: Any idea where I could buy some of my favorite French foods online? I'm looking for a place that offers delivery to the US and I'm not too concerned with the price/shipping/tax. What I REALLY miss more than anything and would literally die for is Pommes Noisettes/Dauphine; I don't care if they are frozen, fresh, homemade, etc, I just miss them so passionatly that I dream of them on a regular basis, haha :)) If you know of anywhere that sells French foods internationally that might be able to help me I would be eternally grateful! Thanks again and good luck with your travels! Merci beaucoup et j'espere que tout va bien! :) — Mary An excellent and informative site - thanks for all the time you've put into it!! And your pictures are very nice as well =) — Laura Hi Anthony....I emailed you direct yesterday, but thought I'd search for your website, as well. Happy to see you are still in the business of touring. I passed the website on to my friend Terry. Your website is very impressive. I didn't know that you were a pilot! I still cherish the photos you took of Kirsten and me and our tour of the city. Someday, I'll be back!....Louise — Louise Going to Paris, 7weeks till we go, family of 5, was looking for fast food takeaway restaurants. Thanks for answering my query!! As you said, not too interested in the fine food or fancy restaurants, going for the adventure. Happy to eat a Muslie Bar for dinner if I had too! Ha! but good to know we can grab Macca's if we're pushed for time and not made any reservations! Will come back to your site for an indepth read later on! Cheers Mate from Australia! — Judy I keep this on my favorites list because I enjoy the pictures so much. — Elise Love your photos. Am going to share your website with relatives who will be traveling to Paris soon. I've been telling them how magnificent the view of le tour eiffel is from palais de chaillot. Outstanding! — Marilyn Reply: Thanks! The main pictures of the Eiffel Tower on my site were indeed shot from the plaza between the wings of the Palais de Chaillot, which provides a spectacular view of the landmark. — Anthony Great site. My young sons and I found your site from a google search for "Eiffel tower elevators" and stayed to check out the art and photos. Quality stuff. Keep up the good work. — Mariam Reply: Thanks for the compliments! — Anthony Your pencil drawings were very good. The human face is one of the most difficult subjects to draw. Your interpretations were excellent! I've seen many excellent and talented artists, who don't come near the quality of your facial drawings. Keep up the great work; you're obviously very creative and gifted. — Julie Enjoyed your alter ego's site and curiosity led me to this one. Very impressive! cya on AGMSFS! Vic — Vic Baron Nice site, and I came here after googling on "Why should I live in Paris?" because I'm working toward moving there in two years. I'm really enjoying your candor and your good writing. Thanks! I'll be back. Maybe I'll even go look at the galleries. — Terry enjoys reading your Paris stuff.... will be going there in a month time .. — Kc Thanks a bunch for all the terrific material you've made available on this site - love the Street Scenes!I hope you're still doing the personal tours by the time I get to Paris. Your description of a facilitator rather than a tour guide would be the ideal way to see the city. Cheers, Tom — Tom Hi Anthony! Stumbled on your website while researching information on Paris since I will be going in July for a summer program. A lot to take in! I will visit again. Wish I could donate but unfortunately saving all my money for this trip. =[ — Krystal Hey - interesting web site. I have just gotten back from a week in Paris, and stumbled on your site whilst surfing for information about the padlocks on Pont Arts. Wished we'd found it before we went. Well done. — Warick Reply: The padlocks are a Valentine's Day tradition for people in love. I don't explain it here on my site, but I'll update it to include this tidbit of information. — Anthony Hi Anthony. I'm also an American expat in Paris and stumbled on your site today and spent a long while here. So many interesting things to read and see. Thanks! Looking forward to receiving news of new additions to the site. — Lisa Wow! Your site is a total treasure trove. Bravo! I'll be back, Alex — Alex THANK YOU!!! You should do something about financially supporting your beautiful site-not paying for it from your own pocket! If you post it on my face or facebook every hit could automatically raise 99cens a view! You desrve it!! Thank you for the beauty and helpfull information!!!God bless people like you!!!! — Albena Dimitrova Best website with lots of info on Paris!!! I love it. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing :-). — Daisy Hi Anthony, We've been in Paris for a few months now of our 5 month trip, and I found your Paris Metro guide (April 2009) the other day—it seems very useful. I noticed when talking about transfers between buses you state that a new ticket is needed if changing buses. The RATP.fr website says about "e ticket t+": “Le client dispose de 1h30 entre la première validation et la dernière validation pour effectuer une ou plusieurs correspondances. À chaque changement de mode de transport, le ticket doit être à nouveau validé.” I THINK this means that one is supposed to be able to use the same ticket on multiple forms of transport within 90 minutes, for a one-way trip. I have not made any multiple bus trips, but my wife and kids did the other day and did not report any issues with using a single ticket for two buses. Another item that might be worth mentioning—the bus drivers seem to charge €0.10 more for a ticket (€1.70; rather than €1.60) compared to a machine or station. This is also listed on the ratp.fr website. When our little family uses a metro ticket, we rip off a bit from the corner to show it has been used. This is a bit easier to spot than the validation mark made by the machines, particularly when mixed with other unused tickets in a pocket or purse, and the tickets still run through the validation machines without trouble. — Johann Reply: I'll check into these details and update the guide as necessary. The last revision was mainly to include new information on the late, great Carte Orange and the new Navigo passes, so I may have overlooked changes to the bus fare system. I haven't tried a correspondance on the bus in ages, and the last time I actually bought a ticket from a bus driver, the ticket cost the same as it did in a station, but things may have changed now. — Anthony You are so unique. Wish I were young again- I'd be your copy-cat. I am a French teacher in a small school in Montana. Love teaching about my favorite country. Wish I were rich, I'd live there for as many months as the country would let me. I have made many friends while visiting there. — Irene Chrest I am a music teacher and I teach a unit on the connection of music and art. We view Sondheim's SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE. One of my students asked today if how La Grand Jatte is depicted at the end of the show is how the island looks today. I searched online and came across your website. Thank you for posting the photos. It has helped. Personally, I've been to Paris twice, but never had the opportunity to visit La Jatte. — John Kling Bonjour. I'm an airline pilot who occasionally gets to Paris on my trips. I was just browsing for some ideas for my visit next week, when I came across a link on Wikipedia to your site (using the mass transit). Nice site. The Citation X is a beautiful machine. Are you an American expat? What brought you to Paris to live? — Russ Reply: Yes, I'm an expat, born and raised in the U.S. I moved to Paris voluntarily because I loved the city, and I've never regretted it—it's a great place to live. And I love the Cessna Citation X, too; it's a welcome addition to my vast stable of virtual aircraft. — Anthony Paris is my favorite city. Maybe one day I'll get to visit before I'm too old to enjoy it. (ha-ha) — Teresa L. Bragg Can't believe I got to Paris and fogot to get in touch. Hope all is well. — Bill Great site, found it while investigating the Eiffel Tower. Your pictures and FAQ on the tower were very informative. — George I saw a photograph of Pont Neuf on the back cover of Time magazine; researched the bridge with Wikipedia; and thought a young French woman student teacher who taught here in America and I was briefly acqainted with. — Bruce Interesting site. I went to Paris in July and I really really enjoyed it. I moved on to Belgium where family lives, but I will go back to explore Paris again next summer. Where are you originally from and why Paris? — Teri Came across a reference to the Alma Tunnel in The Rap Sheet (crime fiction blog) and, since my husband and I may go to Paris next year, thought I'd say hello. Through the wonders of the Internet I, in CT, can say howdy to you, in Paris! Best, — Becky I found your pages while looking for information on how to keep french bread fresh. I think I'll stay a while and wander around. — Kathy I love your website. It's a great resource for French teachers and I'm putting it on my teacher web page so that others can access it. Hope that's okay. — Mary Setliff Hi Anthony! Thanks for such an informative site! I moved to Paris a little over a year ago & have started a blog of my own: analienparisienne at Wordpress. I got here through a friend asking me about Burger Kings in Paris & your page on fast-food was what Google picked up. :) You've got a really well-organized site and fantastic photos. I liked your blog a lot, too. Be well & thanks again! — Karin Great site, Anthony! You probably don't remember me from the early days on various Compuserve Forums (back in the days of numerical-only log-ins) but it's geat to see that you're still around and still doing your thing with this web site, which is now a resource to be treasured by anyone interested in Paris. I kind of miss those early internet days, before it got so ubiquitous.Look forward to visiting the site in the future to see how you continue to grow it. — Rob Naylor Hi! Your Guide to Paris transportation brought me to your website. First of all i LOVE the sites simplicity. No fancy pancy stuff, just plain well organized information. Thank you! I havent checked the whole site yet, but one thing i really missed in your guide to Paris transportation, was a map covering the zones. Maybe an idea for future updates? — Kent Oldhoj Reply: I've considered adding a map many times, but I'd either have to draw one myself (possible, but extremely time-consuming—I started on it once but it was very slow going) or license one from a third party, which would involve all sorts of red tape and money that I don't have. So for the moment there's no map. Maybe someday. In the meantime, Métro stations will give you tiny, free maps if you request them (doesn't help unless you're already in Paris, though). — Anthony Excellent websites! Came here when following a link to the little Statue of Liberty - the replica donated by Americans to the French. My wife and I are Americans and plan to go home to the United States sometime, going the other way around the world, via Paris, which both of us have been to twice - but it was many years ago. We will try to look you up whenever it is we come through. Also I REALLY enjoyed reading your blog for this month. Keep up the excellent work and hope you don't let the turkeys get you down (putting up with all those hassles you mentioned!) — Clair Many thanks for the most informative site on Paris on the entire internet! — Kathryn Awesome work! Your passion shows thru. Your work is a joy to view! You're truly gifted. — Chele Hi Anthony - the site looks great. You have added a lot of material since last I visited. Glad to see you have been able to keep the site up and running, despite the cost. I have to get going to a lecture. See you again soon. — Tereen I am planning a trip to Paris next month and you have provided very helpful information, links, pics, etc. Merci! — Christina my god, they actually found a way to make Tour Montparnasse even uglier. Thanks (I think) for the update and foto. You are the best. Your blog is top-notch adj. Informal. First-rate; excellent. — Hopalong LOve Paris, love your website. — John Otchis Hey there! I came across your site preparing for a little talk to my daughter's preschool class about France. Thanks for the interesting and fun website. I will be back to check up on you ... I hope to visit France one day soon. My mothere is from Quimper, Brittany. I do look forward to the day I can stand in awe at the Eiffel! — Kristina Really enjoyed your laundry-night blog on rue de la Gaïté. Trivia/fyi: "Evelyne Chancel" (www.evelynechancel.com) the Bistrot de la Gaïté Piaf-impersonator appears to be alive & well. If you get time, check Evelyne(?) out here, - actually pretty good! --> http://www.wat.tv/video/Fevelyne-chancel-tf1-diverses-evga_epao_.html - Thanks again for the blogging and fotos. You can't take enough Gaïté-pix to suit me. And Googlemaps do full-screen street views of Paris now (hurrah!) Be well. — Barney Dear Anthony, congratulation for your very interesting Site. I come cros over here for reading about your article of the "ARAGO" monument. Great description. I am wth you in realtion of monuments statements in that article. Thanks — Wolf I absolutely LOVE the street scenes! — Renee your "better judgement" b-damm'd - your blog is a joy. Merci Beaucoup! — Fred Hello Anthony Ive just come back from Paris but did not have much time (3 days) to find exactly what I was looking for. I need research for a book Im writing and wonder if you could help me, for example, cycling from Montrouge to Pont Neuf Bridge what places would you pass by? How far is it? — Carole Hello Anthony, I was (some 5 years ago the ....tiest visitor of your site and you sent me a Michelin guide for it. (still using it now and then) I have grown in my French quite a bit since then. I became a teacher of French and recently i purchased a "residence secondaire" in Pierrefonds(60350) (near the castle). It's a very cute small house and if you have the possibility, you're very welcome to visit us any time you want! We regularly visit Paris now and still love it. Many greetings from Holland ! — Bas and Konnie Anthony - With all due respect: - Your "better judgement" (acknowledged / respected) - isn't what WE want: - We (selfishly) want Anthony's blog again! (it gets worse ...) - If & when it is convenient, would you mind carrying your fave choice of portable (digital / analogue) camera around with you, and perhaps if it is practical continue to let your Paris blog have it's way now and then, svp? Even worse yet - (my stupid idea) - may we please possibly have a method on this site to request (by form / whatever using Paypal, etc) you "recon" / cruise a specific Parisian site or address, etc, based on a specific / cost-efficient donation, and photo / blog it?? (I'd get my wallet out for that!) Summary: - If you don't mind, please acquiesce and cast a few occasional blogpearls now and then, "better judgement" be damned. We / me will gobble them up with gratitude (oink oink!) and do what we can to donate accordingly. All the best! Long life & good health 2 U, AA!! — Georgio Love your site and thanks for information on Paris. My family will be visiting during the summer of 2009. Love your website. — Voronda A. Fields Anthony Atkielski ROCKS! - Pound-4-lb this is the best "Paris" site on the internet for fotos & info! We-r not worthy! — Dirty Dave I am taking my boyfriend to Paris tomorrow, found your site and it was really nice to see some "normal" questions answered. Thanks — clare russell I just wanted to thank you again for being an amazing tour guide when ATW European Adventures was in Paris. We all learned so much from you!! — Meghan Did anybody tell you that your drawings look like police portraits done of criminals - that style - very accurate and to the point and clean. Nice style!Regards. — Anonymous YOUR WEB SITE SEEMS TO BE WORKING FINE — POP Hi Anthony, It's been a while so I thought I'd touch base. I thought of you last weekend, when I visited friends in Gilbert AZ, next door to Mesa. — Shari Beck I became interested in your website because I spotted a graphic you did at: http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/png-rgba32.html I am not an artist but I do need to incorporate some artist techniques on my website to bring it up to the necessary quality. In general you create masks that give the edges of the circles varying levels of opacity. If you have any additional tips and have enough time maybe you could let me know how you went about creating this graphic and why you prefer this method of smoothing curves compared to anti-alias. — Charles J'aime votre site web ! — ariane Bonjour! I soppose I am of among many others who have found your website via google. As me and my petit amie are going to Paris next sunday I found your information usefull-keep up the good work. jusqu'à la fois prochaine! — Maris Hi Anthony! Great work!! I was worrying whether I can come to Paris & Evry on August. Thanks for you weather infos. I have added ur site in my favourites. Very useful and friendly pages. I am surely going to contact u when I start from here. In Evry,I want to visit some 30 Ecole matarnele (kids School) to find my old friend. I am worried that I should not land up there when all the schools are closed for Vacation. Could you pls tell me on which months the schools and companies closes for vacation?? is it during September or october? — Satheesh Sekaran Your site is really nice. — David Always the best fotos on the planet of Paris, but tonight I caught your excellent photograph of Omaha Beach. Imo you got it just right (even the tide, I think, per width of the beach from the cliffs). Thanks as always for sharing. Hope this finds you well. Charles Durning is an excellent character actor, but I never knew he was in one of the first waves at Omaha Beach until recently (not to mention the Malmedy massacre later). What a life he's lived. He gives a moving & detailed testimony to the invasion here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0GVUXh4tQQ. Listening to his story and looking at your photo is a very moving experience. — Dave Hi Anthony. I just had to let you know that your website is amazing! It is very informative, the pictures are great, and i have found some details about Paris that probably cannot be found anywhere else! I am happy that my school project research led me to this website. I have never been to Paris but now I feel like I have. — Diana i am just starting to look, and right away i like it. i have been here fefore and didn't realize it was some one's personal web site. I was sent here when i wanted to know what Allee des Cygnes was. My impressions so far... very 'professional, clear, helpful, easy to understand, informative. now i will go and read. I have a fascination with Paris lately, and am looking for sheer pleasure. Thank you for the work you do, ITis a real treat to learn from you. Peace and Love, Kathleen — K. Hi Anthony I had the pleasure of visiting France for the first time this past summer, Dijon and Paris, and of course fell in love with everything. I plan to make a return trip there alone perhaps this summer, but if not definitely next spring. I am finding your site really helpful, so thank you for all the great info. — Dawn Spent the last three hours browsing through the site when I should have been working. Been to Paris many times and every time is like the first time. Very informative for the would-be visitor. I've bookmarked this site and will keep coming back....3 hours at a time! Well done Anthony. — Alan Harper Just checking in. Not much left of the forum but it's still there and so are Dot, Robin and others, including yours truly. Drop by sometime. — Mark Kirkpatrick Thank you Anthony for your wonderful photo of Notre Dame's rose window. I've never had much luck photographing it. My fourth grade art students are in the process of completing a unit on Gothic art. We will use your site as a resource. Thanks, again. — Nancy Just came back from Paris, love ur page :) — Yang Fascinating set of pictures. Very interesting and enjoyable. — Krista madrid united states of america!! — Anonymous hi anthony thanks for your birthday message yes you were a day early, and i rarely use my hotmail so i only just got it how are you? send me your news. i miss your blog take care x — hannah Thanks for this website. — Chuma Thankyou so much for your street scene pics. I'm suffering from MND, so can't walk those Parisian streets anymore. It brought back lots of memories, especially to see the real Paris and not just the tourist snaps. Truly evocative. Thanks — Malcolm To the clown from Texas, it's spelled "jackass", but I wouldn't expect you to know that. Hi, Anthony, hope things are looking better for you! — Dan altho living in USA for past year immediately wish to advise you I am an Anglo- South African, not an American, for which I am very proud! Always fascinated by the City of Light which has prompted many conversations over various dinner tables with the result that quite a few friends and friends of friends wish to travel from the west coast of the USA to sample the delights of Paris! The general consensus is a) a desire to stay in Paris as non-tourist as possible! and b) to be able to dine and converse with locals, on a couple of occasions during their stay, which invariably will be one week. M. Atkielski your thoughts, and will you be able to assist me in creating such a programme? Thank you, a bientevin Prendergast — Kevin Prendergast Hi from Germany, I like your homepage.Greetings — Jasmin You have really, really worn out your welcome on the VATSIM forums. You run a Paris tour service, how can you possibly have your wealth of knowledge in aviation. Give me a break, you're lies are not fooling anyone. — “John Smith” I think you've over-extended your welcome on VATSIM forums. Please take off and don't return. You are a pure jack ass! — Anonymous Anthony, you have a wonderful web site. I was looking for research on Paris for my current collaboration with James Patterson and found that your photos and text really helped me visualize the background for dramatic scenes. Thanks for posting. Thanks, too, for making good on your promise to respond to e-mail. You're a gentleman and definitely a scholar. Sending you best wishes, Maxine Paetro — Maxine Paetro this is an awesome site i always find uot what i need to know now — Emily Visited Paris again through your wonderful photo gallery! Just want to wish you a very Happy New Year. I hope this finds you healthy, happy and solvent!! I hope your guide service is thriving! The description of your service is wonderful and I have first-hand experience that you are absolutely the BEST tour guide in the business. My son, James wants to visit Paris so we may be booking your service one of these days! Again, Happy New Year! Sandy — Sandy I can relive my visit and look at photos that I should have taken — Toni Hi, Anthony I am planning to visit Paris in 2008 and I used a search engine to find the best time to visit and your site came up. I also read the section for personal tours and I am I truly enjoyed viewing your site and artwork, the detail is awesome! :) Thank you — Victoria I Like All About Your Site But I Would Like To Be A Member Of Your Project — Noor Ahmed nice site, keep up the good work — Anas I returned from Paris yesterday. Very interesting page but few things are missing like royal palace, l'Opera, Gallieries Lafayette, the place where princes Diana died. A very good effort. — Punam Gondia Sorry, I meant "I've been reading /The Da Vinci Code/ these days". — Lid I have been reading these days, I googled "Tuileries Gardens" just now and here I come :) Fancy meeting you in here — Lid Very interesting page. My first visit, a short one, to Paris was back in 1940, when the Germans had just moved in! I need some help. A friend of mine, a French Air Force General, would like to contact Brian Scul in order to obtain his permission to publish one of his stories in a French aviation publication. Would you happen to know how to reach Brian? I do not find him listed in the Air Force Association membership roll. Also, he does not appear in the USAF Academy register. In any case, keep up the good work. Jacques Adnet Lieutenant Colonel USAF (ret) — Jacques I really love your pictures of Paris and the Eiffel Tower.I have always wanted to visit there because it is beautiful and very romantice.I love your website!! — Mikayla thank-you!, i felt i was there walking along beside you as you showed me the city my father always told me about. Your comments on each picture showed the warmth and love you have for Paris, and made me sense more fully each street and park. — Dody Thank you for a great site! We are going to Paris this Christmas. I am sure, your info will be very helpful. — Irina Love your website--only just found it. My first view of the Seine was in 1945--took 45 years before I saw it a second time, 1991, seven more times till last visit this September (my final visit). Your Street Scene Photographs evoke so many memories. I have had a passion for the French language since High School--my advice to anyone planning a trip to France is to bone up on the fundamentals--they will love you when you respond in French, though you may get buried under a high velocity torrent thereafter. Keep up the good work. — Albert Jespersen Hi! nice site — Posix Anthony what an interesting site. Sorry to learn that as my SP is AOL, you will not be able to answer my email. However I will be sending an e to AOL asking why my email is blocked from people that I contact, and I want a very detailed answer, otherwise I may have to find a replacement SP, the list is quite extensive, can,t be many SP that are not on your list? Kind regards, Anthony Porritt — Anthony Hi Anthony, I was looking for admission prices to the Eiffel Tower as we are planning a trip to Paris next summer and I found your site. I found the information I was looking for and so much more! Thanks! — Leslie A lot of things, facts and statements are wrong on your website. I don't know what part of paris you pretend to know, but i guess you don't really know my city. Paris is extremely dangerous and touristes should be warned of it. French crime rate is higher than american crime rate. Paris is much more dangerous than new york city is. Some tourists got murdered over the past decades for resisting robberies (amongsta other things). Some parts of the inner cities are still decay even though there's a kind of gentrification in the city, and a huge part of the suburbs (and still some inner city sections, even in the 14th, 13th and 12th arrondissement, but especially in the 18th, 19th and 20th) are places where tourists would not last two minuts. Not to mention the northeastern suburbs, the greater western, eastern and southen suburbs, a part of the western suburb, and a part of the northern suburb. Don't you remember the 2005 riots?? ANd that was no exclusivity, there are similar events every week, in every french city (and not only major cities) Second thing, we call mac donald's macdo because it's shorter, not because it's hard to pronounce in french. — Sonny Hello, I've come across this page while looking something else : ParisFastFood.html and I must say that some things you say in it just amaze me. How can you say, without laughing, that "The French often refer to McDonald's as the MacDo /makdo/, since it's hard for them to say the complete name." Never heard about shorting names ? Do none of your friends call you "Tony" sometimes ? If you're not joking, then clearly, either you have some problems with foreigners, or you're just stupid. I don't see useful to comment on the rest of the article, since it's your point of view and I respect that (I would even agree on some points), but I'd like you to correct that if you please :) You can erase this message from your guest book if you want, I won't mind. I just wanted to give you my imput, as some sort of "local". Have a nice stay in France anyway :) Regards, — Odile Fantastic site. Spent half an hour browsing through the eclectic subject matter. Thanks. — Ralph merci i love to see the eiffel tower and cant wait for when my french class is visiting france i enjoy speaking fracois — hannah i love this website it helps me with my french home work merci pou anthony's home page — hannah Love your site. I miss your daily journal, although I understand the amount of time it takes. You have motivated me to keep a Paris journal- I miss yours!!!Your photographs are beautiful. www.misplacedinthemidwest.blogspot.com — Matthew Mullaney Great site ! Nice pictures ! My family moved from Amiens Picardie France in 1672 (came to Canada)! Wow what a history, eh ? — Edgar Lefebvre Thanks for all your efforts. It can not be said enough. I have really enjoyed all the information, little details and your candidness. I am still working through your pictures. Hopefully one day to visit and I hear that the winter time is a good time to go. Do you put together any groups? Take care and a good wish to you, Karina — Karina I have visited your web site several times and have found it extremely helpful and informative. We are visiting Paris in September on a short two day visit and I have used your hints and tips to help sort out where to go. If we could afford it we would have loved to hire you as a guide, as I feel that you would be a person we would like and get on well with. Congratulations on the excellent work you are doing and many many thanks. — Mary Smits Visiting Paris from Oct 24-29/2007. Travelling by Rail from Barcelona to Paris on Oct 24. Flying to Toronto from Paris on Oct 29. — John & Jane Drummond Great site I am a veteran hairdresser who about a year ago started a company called beauty pics photography which is doing very well our website is currently being built you'll have to check it out @ beautypics.biz. Good job on your site. Jody — Jody Cole I was looking for an honest review of Paris and I found it. Thanks for the laughs too and amazing pictures. I could see the skit running in my head while I read. I guess anywhere is expensive when you come from Australia. Sigh! — Belinda I have been using your site for desktop images since you first began. I very much appreciate your work and your dedication to the site. I use the cats with the Merci bowl as my laptop desktop and, as I give technology workshops all over LA County, many people see it when I do my presentation. They always ask, "Are those your cats?" and I tell them about your wonderful site. Thanks so much, Nancy — Nancy I am planning on visiting Paris in Spring 2008 and wanted to learn as much as possible about it so I can get the most out of my trip. I came across your site and it is very informative and friendly. I have a question: How far is is the castle/mansion Chambourd from Paris. Again, great site and I will visit it again to see any new developments. Thnx! — Clair Stewart Great informative photos, the Bastille is what drew me to your site. Thank you for sharing your time with the world wide web. — Jim Kellar I especially enjoyed your street scenes. You have done a great job of capturing the pulse of the city. — Joe Mes f諩citations pour ton site tr籠agr蠢le et bien organis笠C'est toujours plaisant de voir son pays appr袩矰ar des personnes de diverses origines! :D J'habite moi-m鬥 dans la banlieue parisienne et j'aime 譯rm謥nt ma ville, mais mon r鵥 est de voir les grands espaces du Montana! Je te souhaite une bonne continuation. Lauriane — Lauriane Came by your site while goggling information about the bells in Notre Dame. Your FAQ about the cathedral was quite entertaining to read. I especially appreciated your explanation of the difference between gargoyles and chimeras. — Mike Hi, I just came across you site on the web and it is wonderful! Your pictures really convey the beauty of Paris and I really commend you for taking the time to make such a great website! Keep up the good work, I will definitely come back. BTW, you also seem like a genuinely nice person too, it is really conveyed through your site. It makes your website seem much more personable and makes one want to stop and see what else you have. Hoping one day my family and I can visit France, but until then it sure is nice to see these pics. Thanks again! Stephanie — Stephanie hey. i was looking up disney paris on google image search and came across your site. i am a pretty tech/internet savvy person, being a teen who spends probably on average a good 4 hours on the internet a day. sad, but true. like most teens it is my life. with that being said i would sincerely say that your site is one of the best travel pages i have ever come across and being a frequent traveler who uses the internet for every possible reason when it comes to said traveling, i like to think that says something. point being, props on your site. its very helpful and one of the few where there is a real person's advice. numbers and data can only go so far and your site gives the real person information which is always welcomed and greatly appreciated. once again, great job. — Anonymous Anthony, You have an amazing site here. I am an ESL teacher working on a project and I came across this gem. I now have beautiful new wallpaper on my desktop to remind me to save all my leftover (HA!) money so that I can get to France next summer. — Teresa Fontenot Just found your site, despite having spent many months researching France (Paris, in particular). Have an apartment waiting for me in a few weeks and though that I'd be doing some cooking .... well, no stove top and hot plates are forbidden ... hmmmmmm. Well, THANKS TO YOU for mentioning about "Picard" ... I went to their website, looked at their offerings, and I feel much better about only having a microwave in the apartment. Yours is the first site I found which mentions it -- either that, or I just skipped over it all the guide books. Thanks again. — RW I've barely touched on your sitebut it looks very interesting. You can bet that I'll be back. I too LOVE Paris and will be going again this summer as we do each year. See you soon. — John Lennan Your website has been most helpful. I will be meeting my significant other in Paris in July. He is an American working on a contract in Africa and I have not seen him in 4 months. We are looking to take in the sights and spend quality time together. I have visited many websites, and I found yours to be most informative. Thanks for such a marvelous insight into Paris. — Robyn Harris Your site was very informative and helpful with beautiful pictures. My son is spending six weeks in Paris this summer on a study tour for University of Florida and will benefit from a lot of the information I obtained on your site. Thank you. — Lynda My wife and I have visited Paris a number of times, and I miss it every minute that I'm away. I just spent the past hour viewing your Paris Street Scenes, and I feel like I was there. They are such wonderful photos. Thank you so much for this website. — Don Anthony: I don't mean to disrupt your business, but anyone with a name like mine requires a word two! Because many script pages are too much for my patience to endure, all I got-out-of your site was that you are into photography of some sort! I know the difficulties in establishing onesself in any area of endeavor and wish you luck and greetings for a successful 2006-7! Thomas (twatkielski@yahoo.com) — Thomas Reply: Strange … there are virtually no scripts on my site. — Anthony I've bookmarked your page. A Francophile, I never tire from looking at pictures of places I've visited and some I haven't. Yours are excellent!! — douglas Hi, Anthony -- Thnx for your website! Question: do I discern correctly that you are an ESL instructor? I was exploring the possibility of pursuing certification as an instructor and somehow found you. In particular, I'd prob'ly be interested (eventually) in teaching in Paris as you do. I find I am addicted to her. If you are an ESL instructor, have you done this long? Has it been difficult to find/keep work? Is there a "community" of teachers? Just wondering. Thnx -- Pam — Pam Reply: Yes, I'm an ESL instructor, as well as a tour guide. Just like George Orwell when he was starving in Paris. Unfortunately, the situation for tour guides and ESL instructors in Paris has not changed since the days he lived here, so I'm starving, too. I do photography and other things as well, but those pay even less (or nothing at all, in some cases). — Anthony I enjoyed your site which was found when looking in Google for the translation of Notre Dame. In Babel it translated as "Our Injury" which seemed strange - so I went looking in Google and saw you. My family and I are going to Paris next year in July. I definitely would like to contact you for a tour. — Janice Reply: Notre dame means “our lady” (the lady being the Virgin Mary, in this context) in French. — Anthony Where have you gone? — susanna Hi Anthony, hope all is well with you. I'm back home in Ireland doing a real job and celebrating my birthday at the weekend and Dee is coming to visit! We'll have a coke in your honour but it will be followed by many beers. Was just looking for a picture of rue de rivoli to remember fun days! Keep in touch El — Eleanor As a 4 times a year Paris visitor, I read every entry in your blog, and I LOVE IT!!! Thanks for taking the trouble. — Sue Checking in on you, and wondering how you deal with guestbook spam. Have you written anything on the subject? — Mike I am going to Paris in a few weeks and am overwhelmed with everthing I don't know about. I am not sure how I got directed to your website. I think from a picture from the pont neuf that I plugged in from google.... thought I must be dreaming from all that lead me too. Cannot thank you enough for all the information you provide. It is invaluable.... You should write a book! Your photos are just beautiful. Thanks again! Gayle — Gayle Chizzik Why aren't you writing in your blog????? — Anonymous Hi, I just wanted to say how great and innovative I think your website is. It's so nice to see when people actually get motivated to execute something like this and I think it's great. My brother sent it to me (he lives there) recommending a sight and I in turn have sent it to two more people in HK who asked me for tips on where to go (I used to live there). So thank you and well done! — Lavinia amazing site !! i think is one of the best i ever visited in lifetime, really interesting and very well orginized. all the best!! — marcos I loved your site! I came across it while searching for information on the history of Paris as well as images of the various landmarks. I am a middle school French teacher in South Carolina and will definitely direct my students to your site as they are researching the Parisian landmarks over the next few weeks. Thank you for taking the time and effort to construct such a wonderful site! — Rebecca found your site in 2001. helped in planning our 2002 trip. look at it often ever since. keep up the good work — steve mostak This is totally amazing!!! I have stayed up the greater portion of a night entranced by your vast knowledge and the manner of presentation. Of all the sites of and about Paris this is hands down the best. You must be a remarkable person with the obvious ability to make clarity of what could be an impossible situation. The links work!!! The pictures, wall paper, tables, and references respond with ease. I am making a trip in a few weeks -- 4 to be exact -- to your beautiful city. It has been 34 years since my wife and I last visited. Thirty five years ago we spent our honeymoon In Paris and our children gave us the gift of a return trip in celebration of our 35th anniv. I just wish to thank you for all the effort, time, scholarsip, dedication, organization this mamouth site represents. Few places I have visited on the net match your peresentation. Plus it is now 6:38 a.m. and I stumbled into your site about 4 hours ago. Many thanks, Tom — Tom Well done! Very entertaining site! It obviously took a lot out of you to do it! I am sur if that you advertised it somehow i the UK you would get loads of customers as here they are very keen and anxious to know Paris like the palm of their hand in front of their friends!Good luck and again bravo! — Emmanuelle Floquet Anthony, I trust you are well. I make a point of reading your blog every week and have noticed that you have not been writing as often as you used to as well as the fact that you don't include as many of your photos. Just wanted to make sure you were well. I travel to Paris at least once a year and always check your site before I go. Your site is the best. Kind regards. — Charles Yes, I too love your site...I am about to take my premier voyage to Paris and your site has been and is extremely helpful,,,I do appreciate it, and soon I hope to add a donation for it is well deserved...thanks — John Garrett Hello Anthony, your site is marvellous!!! It's just what I've been looking for in Internet during some weeks.)) Especially on some bridges of Paris, their description and the description of the nearby sights. Thank you for that carefull and complete job and for the beautiful pictures!!! Good luck!!!!!!!! — Ekaterina Very interesting website, with very good pictures from Paris. I like your blog and the way you write. I can fully understand your trouble with the heat as I was in Paris in July. Keep going, it makes great reading material! — Joris Awesome site, with wonderful pictures. I was already very excited about my trip to Paris next Spring, and your site only added to this excitement. Thank you! — Michele This was most helpful finding the opening times and prices to get into places in Paris. Thanks so much. — Tamara I happened onto this site having done a search for "Inverted Pyramid" as refered to in a spiritual blog I was reading. Since I don't believe in coincidenses, I will be keeping a link to this website in my favorites for future use. The topic of "a trip to Paris" has come up between my fiance and I. So.... I think you have a great site and I have to thank you for sharing and of course for self-promoting. I am impressed. — Stephen Dayton This is simply the best site there is on the world wide web for all things Paris. Love — Rick I love your site. My sister's & I visited Paris in February 2004. We were able to get alot of helpful information from your site & by e-mailing you with questions. We absolutely loved Paris! It has by far been my favorite city I have ever been to. I am hoping to visit again in the near future. Keep up the good work on the site! — Sarah I like the straightforward tone in your site and in your writings. Your blog is great and your comments on fast food in Paris are helpful. — Mimi I enjoyed your photos as well as your blog....sorry about the heat...I can relate! I will be traveling to Paris for the 4th time next May. I will be traveling to Paris with my 4 and 7 year old children for the 1st time! Merci, Lynne — Lynne Lovely web site. Thank you. Coming along (re)learning French at home after a 23 year gap (6 years high school). My husband and I will be in Europe next year and hope to live there when we retire. Thoroghly enjoy your site. The historical and cultural information is wonderful. I also enjoy your photographs and blog. Your site helps keep me motivated to keep up with my French lessons. Thanks, Andy. — Andy My wife and I lot typically seen by most tourists when I go. Excellent job, and I will continue to use your site as a key reference in planning my visit to Paris this year. — Kenneth Cossin Hi! Anthony, I am French (was born in Neuilly/Seine, from Ugandan parents). I live in the suburbs of Paris, not so far from Versailles. I read your article about restaurants and it made me laugh so badly. Mostly, because I happen to work in Quick at Montparnasse. I've been working there for more than a year and what you said is so true (about the trays, the mouse, the soda-filling above the line) Anyway, I'd never imagined someone would write about that. LOL — Sheila Reply: What can I say? Truth is my middle name; I call ’em as I see ’em. I still go to these places occasionally, but I have no illusions about them being squeaky clean or anything like that. And at least Quick doesn't lock its emergency exits as often as McDonald's does. — Anthony I looked trough your pictures from Paris today. There are many interesting pictures in your gallery but my favourite are Les Deux Magots, Marais Qurter and another one with some street (many restaurants and caffee), but I can't find now it's name. I like very much the mood of this pictures. I'm photographer too, but not very serious... always I make some pictures for my office of promotion in our town Torun - this is the place where Nicolaus Copernicus was born. 2 march 2006 I 'm flying to Paris - it is my first time in Paris. Of course now I interested in all of Paris...Margaret — Margaret I am interested in using the photo "Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars at Night" for a project that will be in the yearbook for my high school. The image would be printed on the back endsheet with the yearbook class. I'd like to get your permission before I start working on the page. Thank you, Nell Nordlie — Nell Reply: In order to talk to you about granting permission for use of my images, I need an e-mail address for you that does not reject my e-mail. Your e-mail provider is throwing my replies away, and I cannot license images to parties that refuse to accept my e-mail. Sorry. — — Anthony Hi Anthony: Thanks so much for all the information and wonderful photos. You have done a great job with your website; and in the near future I am sure that the info I got from your site will help me when I finally get to go to Paris. I am researching it right now so that I can have a better idea of what to see; since I will only get to see a small part of it. Thanks again, Susan — Susan Fraser Very enjoyable. I've visited the tower several times but I'm often suprised by the amount of info there is about the tower. — Tim Hunter Hi Anthony! Thank you for providing us with such an excellent site with beautiful photographs and wonderful write-ups. I'm a complete francophile and your website made me yearn to see Paris even more. I'm getting married soon and we'll be in touch with you to request you to be our friend and guide all through our Paris trip. And yes, I'll be bringing along a surprise selected from your wishlist :) You seem to be a wonderful, warm and talented person. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing my favorite city in the world together. — PJ What a great site. I couldn't believe my luck at finding a site that provides so many facts about places I recently visited. Even how many steps I walked in the Eiffel tower. Easy to navigate and filled with great info. Thanks. — Karen Thank-you for this awesome website! It's really cool to see what at least one person of France making such a great website for people like me who've never been there and want as detail as possible about it! Also it's helping me so much with my research paper and I might even get a good grade! Thanks Again. — Allie Thank you for letting me tour your web site. I got some valuable information to help my 6th grade daughter do a report on France. — Deena Reiter What a fantastic website. Brought back some beautiful memories of travelling through France and specifically Paris. Sat by St MArtins canal for a few hours, watched the lock fill and a boat move through, relaxing. It truly is one of my favourite places on earth. You have given me the inspriration to fish out my photos and have a walk down memory lane. Thanks... — Kieren A very impressive web site! You have certainly been working very hard over the last years, and I will be happy to add a link on my own very modest three week old web site QualityTime-ESL.com. Where do you live? In Paris or eslewhere? Good luck in the future. Marianne Raynaud — Marianne Raynaud Annalisa Van Sistine — Great site My husband and I, along with my parents, recently visited Paris and I thought it was the most amazing city. I can hardly wait to go back. Seeing the Eiffel Tower in person for the very first time brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for such a great website - I'll be sure to check it out again before our next visit. JoDee — JoDee Hi again Anthony... thought I'd check in to see what your comments on the riots are... and you are so right on. My husband (who is French) and I are confounded at how the liberal press here in the US is trying to make this out as just another case of racism... if only people knew what it was really like... I've been putting links on my blog from people who are doing a good job at telling it like it is... and what the hey, I think I'm going to blogroll you, 'cuz I like your Paris journal. Stay well. — Rachel I just wanted to say thank you for providing a place where I can go to catch up on the day to day events in Paris. My first trip to Paris was during the Christmas/New Years holidays of 2003-2004. I fell in love with Paris and cannot wait to return. Your website provides me a way to feel closer until I visit again. — Michael Hi Anthony. Long time no speak. I have been watching the news wondered how you are doing. Hope all is well with you. Your site has grown and grown. I wanted to pick out one of the wallpapers but have had a terrible time choosing just one. If you are interested in doing any concert photography let me know. It could be a whole new world for you. Advice: wear earplugs. Peace, A — Ann[Annie] Only had a quick look but will definitely be back when i have some free time... Thanks. — Megan I found your Paris journal blog and am enjoying reading your observations... anyone who really wants to know what the French people and living in France are really like should read this. You have a good take on the culture, as well as the city. — Rachel I admire anyone who continues to pay out-of-pocket to have his own website, especially one about Paris! Please keep up the good work! — Barbara hi anthony your site is good see you at work — hannah I just LOVE your site! I am one of the many who have the fatal addiction to Paris, in all its sights and smells. Visiting your site helps to ease the withdrawal symptoms LOL I especially find myself drawn to your street photography - those are the pics that bring back my visits so vividly. Thanks again! — Kelly We are planning our 4th trip to Paris—staying @ Hotel Excelsior in Latin Quarter from Dec 2-Dec 12. Is it possible to see more of your photography in person? What can we bring you from Texas? We are having a special sale on killer HURRICANES (Katrina,Rita,Wilma), but be aware that these are seasonal and may not be available in Dec., so place your order ASAP! Thanks for such a good site, it always makes us want to be there again. — Mark & Eva Reply: I don't really have any exhibits of my photos anywhere, if that's what you mean. My only gallery is the one on my site (it's a lot cheaper than displaying things in a real physical gallery). — Anthony Anthony: Your site is an excellent place to visit when I am missing Paris - it reconnects me. Thank you. — Charles What a fantastic web site! Your photos are beautiful and it is obvious that you have put in a lot of time and talent. Beautifully done! It was very thoughtful of you to request input from people with disabilities, as well. Best wishes to you! Au revoir! (I would have included my e-mail address, but I didn't know if it would be displayed in the guest book or not.) — Mary Reply: Your e-mail address is never displayed in the guest book. I see it, but it is not put on the site. I stopped putting e-mail address in the guest book long ago, because spammers were trying to harvest the e-mail addresses from the book. If you provide an e-mail address I can send you a thank-you note. — Anthony Ahh, the first site Googled for "Best time to visit Paris"... with some good information! Thanks for a nice site. It's nice to see one that's not commercial. — Mike As a bad photographer myself, I am encouraged as I look at your site as to what I can do to get better. I hope to be 'not awful' some day. Thanks for your site. — Johnny Power Thank you so much for your website. It contain alot of cool detail which help me alot for my little project but for a matter of facts, some day I'll visit France and this would be a very good tips for me :):) — Tien Good attempt to explore Paris via galleries and with detailed description. I love Paris. its my dream land. But i have no sources to see and live in Paris. Good Luck! — Sajid Chughtai I was searching for a chess set and BAM! up pops your last name. As you can see we have the same last name. Could we be related? I was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. If you are curious as I am, E-mail me back. John — John Reply: We are almost certainly related; there are very few Atkielskis in the U.S. Unfortunately, your ISP throws away all the e-mail I send, so you'll never see the detailed reply I sent you. Maybe you should find a new ISP, if receiving e-mail is important to you. — Anthony Doing home work and looked at your site was not able to find the following quetions maybe you could help me here they are: In 1986 how old sis the staue turn? Why was the US given the staue? Who built the pedstal? — Renee Williams I'm doing a french project and I stumbled across your site. The monuments in paris are great!! I think France is rich.. I mean, look at all that gold!! Has anyone ever tried to steal it? (hehe)~No i'm not going to steal it, it'll be a while till i get to France anyways~ — Andrea Reply: Most of the gold is in places where it would be difficult to steal: at the top of domes and statues, etc. It's also very thin—just a very fine layer of gold leaf carefully glued onto the structure beneath. So someone would have to climb into an awkward and very visible position and then carefully scrape off a large amount of gold in order to get anything of value, and few crooks are that dedicated and adventurous. — Anthony As a French teacher (currently to 7th graders) I am always looking for beautiful France links. I will bookmark this one! Merci mille fois! — Deb Terry I just came across your site while planning my 6th trip to Paris. I've bookmarked it, as I'm sure I will be coming back to it a lot while I complete my planning. Thank you. — Mary Beth Waouh... Quote : Since many of these sites are in France, they are afflicted by the stupidity of the average French web designer, who still believes that clogging a site with Flash and Shockwave animations, Java, animated Gifs, "web-safe" colors, and other anachronisms actually improves the ergonomy, utility, and aesthetics of a site. The links to these badly-designed sites are in gray to emphasize their unfriendly design. (...) I've been trying to bring French webmasters up to speed with the rest of the world for years, but they clearly don't care, for the most part. End of quote. Quite rude of you don't you think ? How about you get a better internet speed yourself, dude ? Took me no more than 5 seconds to access those "gray sites" of yours. Besides, how many of the common people can afford The Ritz and Place Vendome anyway ? They are two of the most expensive places in Paris, catering to the rich and famous only. And since when Disney worldwide is low on pop ups and other animations ? American based companies like Disney usually have only one IT place in Europe and that would be the UK or Ireland, not France. These people don't deserve you being so rude to them. — Anonymous Reply: The comments I made are completely relevant. French Web design is years behind the times, and I'm tired of wading through French Web sites that embody every conceivable mistake that a web designer could make. Truly they set records for bad design. If the people designing these Web sites don't like my comments, they can grow up into the 21st century and design sites that are clean, ergonomic, and informative, instead of building them to suit some adolescent geek's fantasy. I'm continually dismayed and amazed by just how backward France continues to be when it comes to the Internet and personal computing. Won't they ever turn off the Minitels and dump the Ada and Pascal manuals and join the modern world? — Anthony Man I can't believe you actually know Paris better than I do ! I'm french myself, parisian even, and I think your pictures are awesome. I stumbled on your site while looking for pics of Carrousel du Louvre on Google. Would you believe I've just discovered the Carrousel's food court THIS WEEK, while you've obviously known about it for years, I'm impressed. Your pics are this good because they don't only show a tourist view, but the day-to-day Paris as we parisians live it. Congratulations ! You've got my vote, and I'll recommend your site to every parisian looking for good wallpapers about our beautiful city. — Anonymous Ashley M. Goodson — cool site. cool site. later — Angel Goodson I've enjoyed browsing your site which I chanced upon today. Don't know whether you'll be able to answer my questions... I'm coming to Paris next week for my 2nd visit (en route to Spain). This time I'd like to explore Montmartre, the Latin quarter, Pompidou Centre, Les Halles, La Defense + take a ride on a Bateau Mouche. I'm a wheelchair user + am used to finding my way around (I have my own vehicle + travel with an assistant), but do you have any useful tips? — Suselle I really like your site. It's easy to understand. It has a nice layout. I too have a website. It's easy enough to get around but I don't have good placement with the search engines because I use a Site Builder which puts frames around everything which I believe to be a problem for the search engines. I'm in the process of redoing my site and wondered if you could be so kind as to point me in the right direction. What software to use? Word? Front Page? I know a little HTML but not much. Do you know of a good site builder that doesn't use frames? Any help you can give me is most appreciated! Michelle — Michelle I will be in Paris soon!!!! My first time — Craig Haug I visit your website from time to time, and have enjoyed watching it grow and develop. It's very well done. I lived in Le Vesinet (1982-1985) and St. Nom-La Breteche (1989-1991), and have returned on business several times. Your photographs help us remember our wonderful time in Paris and France. I enjoy reading your Paris Journal -- we share your impressions and opinions. — Ed Ponzini What a wonderful resource! Thank you so much for compiling this extraordinary site. I learned a lot and enjoyed my visit thoroughly. — Lysa Parker thanks for the site. We are staying in the Marais for a month- it has been great. I appreciate your comment on the disability awareness- we have a son with a disability- and I think it is great that you care. Thanks again, Nancy — Nancy I came across your website looking up fast food in Paris. Weird but I was curious. I've never been to France although I've wanted to for quite some time. It seems so different from the US. I'm wanting to visit St. Tropez, Plan de la Tour, as well as Paris. Great info/photos! www.bekind20thers.tk — Alyssa I just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed your site over the years... next time I am in Paris, I'll see if I can take you out for a drink!William Ethan Mayo — Ethan I was just in France for 3 weeks (June 6th-27th). The majority of the time I was in the city Angers which is 2 hours south of Paris and I spent the last 4 days in Paris and I absolutely LOVED the city. I wish I was in Paris the whole 3 weeks. I am a French Major and was there for a class. But I wanted to tell you that I loved your site and I think you have the most amazing pictures of Paris. Take Care ~Jodi — Jodi Lecuru Found your site when I was for pictures of the Paris Statue of Liberty I understand there are three the one in your wonderful photo and two other smaller copies one in the chapel of the Musee des Arts et Metiers and one in the Luxembourg Gardens. I have seen the one in the Luxembourg Gardens many years ago its a small black statue but I've looked again for it but couldnt find it again. I'm due to go to Paris on holiday soon and was looking for directions for it. Only just started looking at your site can see theres lots to look at, can't wait will put it in my favourites. — Pam I'm very glad I found this site. I'm going to do a very brief (sadly) visit to Paris on 27/28/29th of August, it will only be a taster of the city, but I still need to do my research, so I'm attempting to put some kind of plan together. Many Thanks for the site! Steve — Steven Franks Tjingeling Anthony! I loved your website! — Linda Recently returned from my first (& hubby's second) visit to Paris SO infatuated with everything about it- so it's great to find such a friendly site with so much info. I can pretend I'm still there.. or will be again soon! — Lynne Dear Anthony thank you for birthday message.I would love to see metro trains again ... maybe later this year. — Sujay We recently returned from Paris and I am compiling a scrapbook. I needed a certain image to complete a page and found your website. It is very thorough and informative - thanks! I even printed off a picture of the automated toilet that I didn't photograph when there. You have obviously spent a lot of time putting this together. Well done. — a Reply: Thanks. Your ISP, Road Runner (a division of Time-Warner) is too incompetent to manage its e-mail systems correctly and threw my personal e-mail reply to you away. — Anthony Wonderful site. You haven't updated the journal in awhile so I thought I'd check up on you. — Matt Hi Anthony, As I mentioned early in the Spring, I found your site very helpful in preparing for my May/June trip to Paris. Now that I'm back, I'm still visiting your site on a regular basis just to see your wonderful photos and refresh my memory on things seen and things to do on the next trip. Your site helps me feel connected to Paris. Thanks again. Pat — Patricia Reply: Thanks. Your ISP threw away my personal e-mail reply. — Anthony I don't believe it!! I love water and boats, and yet while I was living on Rue Jacques Coeur near the Bastille, I never discovered the canal and the lake! And I was a walking explorer of Paris, too! ! Mind you, that was 1971 -- maybe they added it after? ;-)!Anthony, your site is fabulous! Beautifully made, with stunningly good photos, your high tech abilities always in evidence, and just the right expression of the aura of the real Paris. I can't thank you enough for your massive hard work in providing this to we Web travellers [who'd rather be true travellers :-)!]I'll be back, often! Janet :-D!! — Janet Reply: Thanks. I won't be able to reply to you by e-mail because your ISP is throwing away incoming messages. — Anthony bonjour Anthony! J'aime bien votre site de web. Je suis americaine mais j'ai appris a parler francais dans l'universite. J'espere visiter paris l'ete prochaine, et votre site de web m'a aide beaucoup. Il y a beaucoup d'information, detaille. Merci beaucoup!! -Marcia Herrera — marcia OMg this is such an amazin site, where do u live????? Coz u r well wicked, and i fancy u like crazy, fancy a pen pal????????????? i luv u soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much Luv xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx — xxx Reply: In answer to your question, I live in Paris. — Anthony Hello Anthony,Thought you might be interested in yet another scaled down replica of the Statue of Liberty. This one is in Loveland, Colorado. I don't think it's been the location for any movies.Randy http://jett-lag.tripod.com/Colorado/lovelandlake1.JPG — Randy Hi Anthony! I am David, a French guy from Paris now living in Barcelona Spain. I miss Paris a lot and I often go and watch my city on the web. I just dropped by your page and I think it is marvellous. It is exactly what I like to see and it is complete and very beautiful. Congratulations and thanks for it. Your photos are not tourism-pictures but more picture of someone who is living there. They give more than a simple architectural view but let you feel the way of life (what miss me the most here in Spain). I did not have time to read everything but you did a great job and I just would like to thank you. Hope the French are nice with you! On my side I have been living for two years in Boston, MA and it was a great experience.Good luck for everything!David — David Your Web site was a great help before my recent trip to France during which I spent nearly a week in Paris. I visit it now and then to keep in touch with Paris. Thanks for all your down-to-earth advice. — Mimi Hi Anthony. My friend sent me a link to your website to show us Place des Vosges as she's moving near there shortly. I used to live in Paris a few years back and I couldn't help but look through your Paris Street scenes photos which I really enjoyed. Your photos really capture the moment and each photo seems to tell a story, they were a pleasure to go through. It's nice to see the 'everyday' Paris photographed as it gives you a better feel for what the city's all about rather than photos of its architecture. It'd be nice to see more photos to illustrate the social scene in Paris at night. — Emily Hi Anthony, Absolutly feel as though I've hit the jackpot in finding your site..I will be in Paris on August 7th for two weeks...I am doingI am open to alll research on some great "non traditional" things to do...What do you know about "the Paris Show" on Rue Scribe? Or the concerts held in 17th century "Eglise St.Louis"....(in August)Also heard about the dance troupe,circus performers,theater acts at the Tuleries and Luxembourg Gardens...(In August)? — putsy Aloha, Anthony! As always, your website is engaging, informative, and extremely well-done. I keep agitating at home for a visit to Paris, and who knows? With any good luck we'll get there some day before too long now that it's closer. Meanwhile I'll drop in and enjoy your virtual tours. Take care.....Jeanne — Jeanne Reply: Thanks. Your ISP threw away my personal e-mail reply. You might want to ask the folks at US Internet why they are so incompetent. — Anthony Wonderful! I just got back from Paris and you're pictures are awesome. Thank you for your efforts and keep up the website! — Patti Great pictures taken at different times and weather. I've seen Paris only in April. The weather is was fine that time. Except for your pictures of Pont Neuf, I wouldn't have known that G.Pompidou Expressway is submerged in river water on occasions.thanks! — Julius Cabalu This is a superb piece of work and faithfully accurate depiction of my favourite city. Worthy of encouragement. Keep it up. Cheers. — Martin This is sucky website it didnt help me nething wen i went to Paris Stink aye. ahhhhh just incase you might want to check out this website because i have found another website that has given me more and better information www.tour-eiffel.fr/teiffel/uk/pratique/faq/index.html?id=2_10Thanx for you site anyway............ not — Julie Reply: It goes without saying that the official site of the Eiffel Tower is likely to be a better source of information on the tower than my site. I'm sorry I wasn't able to do your homework for you. — Anthony What a gay website nah kidding its great — Kaitlin Anthony, Thanks very much for an excellent site filled with great photographs and detailed practical information. I and my family plan to visit Paris early in August, and some of your information was more helpful than even the best guidebooks have been. I also enjoy documentary photography very much, so your site was a treat. — Rodney Jones hi i liked ur web site but u should show how munch it cosyes 2 go bin — Anonymous Your website is like taking a tour of that beautiful city only been there once --somewhere in my lifetime --hope to returnYor website is marked as **My Favorites!!!KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB — Delores Short Reply: Thanks. Unfortunately, your ISP, America Online prefers to throw away legitimate incoming e-mail without telling you, so you'll never see my personal e-mail reply to you, which AOL threw away. — Anthony My Husband & I just returned from Paris. Thanks to your site, I was able to get better information on some of the sites we seen. Your site will help me in writing information to go along with our pictures. Thanks. — Mary I am researching Paris as a setting for my next novel. It will be called Pont Neuf, so I used that phrase as a key phrase and your Website opened first. I have only visited Paris twice so I will have to make up a lot and do some research. — Rene' hi, i wanted to thank you for sharing your fantastic pictures. i found the street of paris pics absolutely great. i really loved them and your style keep goingchiara — chiara Very Cool Website!! I am in the 3rd grade at Citrus Elementary in Vero Beach, Florida and have been assigned to do a project including illustrations of France. Your website has been very helpful. Thank you. — Demi I am so delighted to find your web-site with what I can only describe as a "Treasure Trove" of information! Particularly about the Willow tree at the end of Pont Neuf. I have always had my picture taken next to it every visit to Paris and was so sad when I saw it had gone last year June 2004. — Dot Soar I will be visiting Paris and other areas of France in May/June. Found your site while researching places I want visit--now I'm hooked. Your street photos are a feast. Long after I return from Paris, I will be revisiting it on your site. Aside from enjoying your photos, I gathered some useful information. Many thanks. — Patricia hey anthony! im new @ this site. i liked your question and answer page on norte dame. i got good info. nice web site. Bye the way do you know how long the services in the norte dame services? ok bye! — abby santamaria great pictures you've got here anthony.i've never been to your place,hope someday i can personally visit your famous glass pyramid,and personally look at the famous Monalisa. more power and GOD bless.......... — roela this is just great!i've just finish reading the "Da Vinci Code" really it gives me a freak feeling.i"ve never been to france,though,we have friends outhere(toulous)by trying to find and look at a picture of the inverted pyramid,i have accidentally found your website.and it gives me a clear view of the said pyramid. — roela I was just in Paris 3 weeks ago, and it's great to see pictures and reminisce all over again. Thank you for the great photos and write ups. I wish I would found your website before going there. I love Paris and can't wait to go back! — JJ Your site gave me some great pics for a report I'm doing, but not enough info was here to write much — Susie Great site! I was just searching anything on Paris and its old bistros and your site was listed as a Paris site so I checked your site out. Great photos will consider contacting you on the use of some prints for my restaurant's art shows that we feature from time to time. Also planning a bistro tour for my business partner and self next fall. I will consider your services as a guide. Enjoyed your work,and will check your site again soon! — Bud I like the idea of personal Paris tours. My friends and I, 6 of us, will have a 16 hour stop over in Paris when returning from Athens October 4 - 5. Arriving at CDG airport at 5:25 P.M. Our time will be limited to see as much of Paris at night as is possible. It would be more than wonderful if we could be picked up from the airport, taken to our hotel, then on a personal tour and back to hotel in area of the Latin Quarter. Can this be arranged through your service? What price? — Betty Lockett Anthony, I ended up here in my search for Carrousel du Louvre. I haven't scrutinised ur site yet, but it looks veeeery impressive. so i shall.. It puzzles me that all your visitors in this guest book are americans. why is that? — Daniel Reply: [The vast majority of visitors to my site are Americans (based on what I see in the logs), so it's only logical that most of the people signing the guest book would also be American. — ] — Anthony Great site, Anthony. The photographs & text writeups are QUALITY work. thanks for sharing your city with us. — Mary not be so nagging sucky boy — Claudia Thanks for the info on eating in paris im leaving in about 12 hours and was a bit worried as my french is not up to par. — Ross Hi. I found your site while searching for information on the Eiffel tower. In particular, I was trying to find more information on the Thomas Edison wax figure housed in the tower.What started out to be a quick simple search, turned out to be a small hostory lesson. I ended up book marking your site and enjoyed reading some of the interesting facts about the tower.Thanks -Mike — Mike I found your site when looking for a good photo of the Montparnasse Tower, which, as you probably know, is in the news right now (March 05) due to the asbestos contamination throughout the building. Wow, that is one eerrrggglllyyyyy building! It's not even very good Modernist architecture. What were they thinking?Next time I come to Paris I will call and see if you're available for a tour. Your tours sound like exactly what I'd like. What a find.Ok, best to you! Thanks for a great web site. — Alistair your site is well constructed. great information. and best of all is your work! i am an artist, working at a design firm and i will share your website with all i know! very fresh and new. thanks for sharing. — Manny Anthony! Your photos are really good! I'm impressed:) It was a real pleasure for me to watch the ones you called Street Scenes of Paris! Wonderful, you really managed to show Paris life as it is! These are the streets, the places and the people as I see them every day:). This is the third year since I moved to Paris from Poland yet I admire it still! It's a charming city and it was a very good choise to make those photos in black and white! Well, thank you very much for this gallery! Bonne chance et bon courage, Anthony! Un excellent travaille:)! — Maria Hi there! As I have spent several months in Paris as a student last fall, I felt a huge blow of nostalgia this night and spent almost one hour browsing your photo gallery. Great photos, nice texts. Thanks for your efforts. Your love for this city is obvious, and it's same here. Luckily, I'm going back there next fall. Greetings from Croatia! — Sandra roarrrrrrrrrrrrrrr — Anonymous I just had to visit after reading a few of your comments posted on the FreeBSD-questions web cite. I neither agree nor disagree with your statements regarding FreeBSD or Linux. My experience has not been the same but I use different equipment for different purposes. So it's not really comparable. Nice web cite however, i'll keep it in mind should I ever plan a trip to Paris. — ned Thank you so much for your wonderful website; I'll tell you right off the bat I now know how to pronounce Champs Elysees! You also helped allay to a great extent my fear of being accosted by pickpocketers, I realize I need to be alert but now I won't have a look of fear on my face when I travel to Paris on April 4th! My French is limited but I'm taking private French lessons (10 of them) before I arrive in Paris. I'll revisit your site often before I depart! Many thanks again, Jana Birkett — Jana A wonderful site, thanks very much. I spend every June/July in Paris (le 18'eme). I miss it as soon as I leave. Regards from San Francisco — Patrick Lathrop Surfing (from my iPAQ 4150) for the best time of year to visit Paris again. Haven't visited since 1984. Thanks for the good references on weather and food. — Barry Anthony: Excelent Pictures, I appreciate very well the beatiful Par챬 I hope to visit France in 2006 year and I'll traying to understand to french people.Thank you for your illustrations. — Abel I love your Paris street scenes! excellent! I got to your website through virtual tourist Davequ's page. i'll be back, your photos are wonderful. And we both are in love with Paris!XenoHumph from virtualtourist.com — Anne Thank you so much for putting together such an interesting (this is something a lot of web sites lack) and informative web site. As a student who has a presentation on notre dame, paris due in a few days, your web site is invaluable! Hope you continue to travel the world and keep up with your wonderful photography work! take care and thank you again! tina. — tina hey anthony! i am very amused by ur website!!! i found it on yahoo search... i am polish french and live in usa for about five years and i really miss europe specially PAris!!! so i go online and check some of the news. now im gonna visit us site more oftenthnx alot!!! patricia — Patricia I visited France in October and was very impressed with the friendliness of the people. Your web site brings happy memories. Thanks! — — Terry Hi Anthony, I happened upon your site while searching for "Pont Neuf" on Google, as my son had mentioned it in an email to me. He and his girlfriend will be in Paris for 10 days in February. Your site is very interesting and has beautiful images of the city. I copied your home page address and sent it to him - I'm sure he'll enjoy your site! — — Craig Jones Hi Anthony, I stumbled across your site as a link from a university powerpoint presentation, showing a pic of Euro Disney. I love Paris and France, and have visitied four times, twice as short stopovers when on work in Europe (trade shows) and twice as a tourist. My French is very basic or non-existent, but I have not found the French to be arrogant, rude or any of the other presumptions. They are proud people and are quite formal in their metting and greeting, especially compared to us Aussies! I never felt unsafe in Paris or the Metro, but then I avoided nightclubs or dark streets at 3 a.m. DUR!! I envy you working and living in Paris - despite your comments about lower standard of living it would be a wonderful experience. Congratulations on the site and I WILL RETURN! to France and to your site, that is.. Thanks, Geoff. — — Geoff Crane My wife and I visited Paris last June; but we had visited Jack's walk-about tours site on many occasions before that. Your site is delightful and a pleasure to the eye. I am currently putting my own site together - a little more like a newspaper than your own, but with pages devoted to a variety of different topics including photography (moi) painting (moi femme) and - wait for it - politics (but only on the front page. Again, congratulations. There is a lot of hard work in your site and I appreciate your effort. It is a tribute to you. Kind regards David Long — — David Long This is an excellent site. Very informational. A+ all the way! — — Matthew Gordon This has really prepared me for my trip to Europe. Thanks for the website. — — Ashley I found your site using Yahoo search engine. I was looking for a place to stay for my son 22, in Paris. Today is 12/11/04 — — Jerry Me encantan las imথenes de este sitio. Muy Bien!!! — — silvia Thanks for the booklet "How to Use Public Transportation in Paris". I just hope I have enough time to read the entire thing before our trip this Saturday. — — Rose Im at school And have found that this web site is VERY helpful... NOT!!!!!!! — — Sara It's nice to know that not all of the relatives that I've been able to track down are so provential. Keep up the great work. It's nice to have an artist in the family! — — Thomas C. Atkielski Hi, there I was surfing the net trying to find a picture of the tomb of Samuel Hannemahn (Pere Lachaise), and came across your site...didn't find what I was looking for, but marvelled at your beautiful pictures. Many thanks for a thoroughly enjoyable site! cheers Josianne — — Josianne :() { :|:&};: yup Bob Spring, TexasUnited States of America Friday, November 12, 2004 In searching today's news, I was looking for an image of the wreath laying ceremony by the USA President Bush at Arlington Cemetary. It is done every Veteran's Day in honor of our soldiers who have given the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. I was quite disappointed in reading your caption regarding the memorial monument in Paris. So negative, so unappreciative of what previous generations have sacrificed for you. On this memorial day we should all stop for a moment and thank those who have sacrificed everything for us. We should live our lives with thanks and a little more humility. — ed dullaghan Your information on the Eiffel Tower is excellent and really helpful. Last spring I visited the Eiffel Tower and knowing the facts and history of the Tower and the city of Paris as a whole truly enhanced by experience. If I had money, I'd donate but I'm only a student... thanks again! I have had a deep love for France since I was very young. I have never been there, but am hoping to at least make it to Paris in 2005. Mary Akre Granger, IndianaUnited States of America Tuesday, October 26, 2004 Great site! Found it surfing the web looking for Paris info prior to my wife and I's first trip to Paris. Thank you! — Jim Hello Anthony, It's been a while since I've visited your site. I thought you went offline, but I'm happy to see you are still here. I was in Paris in July and it was fabulous as usual. I'm currently working on a research paper concerning la Tour Eiffel as a symbol of the new technological age. If you have any resources to suggest, it would be much appreciated. By the way, I have just finished a book called Paris to the Moon by Adam Gopnik. As an American who lived in France, I greatly appreciated his insights and I'm sure you would too. A plus, Tara Tara Palm Harbor, FloridaUnited States of America Monday, October 18, 2004 What a fantastic site! I haven't even looked at everything yet, but I just had to tell you how much I am enjoying the photos and your essays. I'm visiting Paris for the 4th time in November. I'll be visiting your site a lot until then to prepare and to savor the anticipation! Thanks! — Penny Fantastic site! What a nice escape from an otherwise stressful day. Thanks for sharing such beautiful moments. Chris Wagner Webster, TexasUnited States of America Tuesday, October 5, 2004 Came for the photos, stayed for the FAQs and essays. Your site will be a definite must when planning a trip to Paris in the next few years. — Janice I was on google looking for the Tour d'Argent (I was bidding on a dish from there on ebay) and found your site. I looked at the entire street scenes section but will be looking at all the others, too. My father was in WWII and fought in France, so I grew up listening to his stories and have a fascination with that country. He told me when the war was declared over he was sleeping on a park bench near the Arc D'Triumph and people woke him up celebrating. I was fascinated by your picture of an old man sitting on a park bench near the Arc D'Triumph as it really brought that memory back. My Dad has been in heaven over 12 years now and that was a sweet moment to remember when he told me that story. I also loved the big cat sleeping in the little bed with covers. I am in mid-50's and am a legal assistant. I am disabled (lots of leg surgeries) so will probably never see France but I can see it through your eyes now. Thank you. Connie Connie Stilson Topeka, KansasUnited States of America Wednesday, September 29, 2004 Hello Mixi! I'll have a look at the photos now. — Mike I like very much and i will be very happy to stay there for some months. — Lukacova Yvonne Your site is wonderful and fantastic. — Benjamin Nwanguma Great site! Very interesting and informative. I am glad I found it. — Amanda You can see by my name, Anthony Paris, that I love Paris. Been to some of the wonderful places in your webpage. Awesome — Anthony Paris You can see by my name I love Paris and everything about it. — anthony I was looking for a picture of Seurat's La Grande Jatte and I stumble into your site. Awesome and extremely informative. Keep up the good work. Best Regards. www.octavius-jewelrydesign.com — octavius giraldo-vay I really enjoyed your site. Thanks for the wallpaper... I love Paris and these photos are great! — Maurice Wilde Vos photos sont vachement magnifiques, cher Anthony! Félicitations. Chapeau! Dommage que tu ne puisses pas parler avec mes étudiants. Ils aiment beaucoup vos images et ils adorent aussi la ville lumière. — Suzie Martin Your insights in your "Paris Journal" are brilliant. I especially like your take on the French attitude toward Americans...they watch American movies, go to American stores, yet are loath to admit their America-philia to a certain extent. At any rate, good luck with your affairs and thanks very much for the excellent site! — Mallory Hello Anthony, Seems like you have a good thing going for your self. it's nice that you want to share it with other people. Probably I'm going to work in Paris for one year, so I was looking for more information, and your site helpt. maybe I'll see you in paris! Kind regards, Anouk — anouk Hi, Anthony. Just visiting Paris again through your wonderful website. I must say I am thoroughly delighted that you are conducting tours. You are so GOOD at that. I hope many, many people are using your services! Miss you! Sandy Angelle — Sandy Parabéns, adorei as imagens de Paris. Estava procurando h�uito tempo por uma qualidade como encontrei nesta pna, Obrigada.Merci. (in portuguese) — Izabel Anthony, i am a teacher at a small college in Japan. Surfing the web looking for pictures of Disneyland to use in english class as an exercise in planning a trip. Fantastic photographs! Yeah, I know, if I like them so much I should send you a dollar...how about 100 yen? by the way, my closest Bahai friend here in Japan is a manager of one of the set design teams for Disney...so he has been here helping with Sea World. I wonder if he had anything to do with Paris Disney. this is the first time I have seen pictures of the place....really really nice. ....but reminds me of the money I lost...I was one of those unfortunate souls who invested HEAVILY (relatively speaking) in EuroDisney stock because...I was aware of the Disney management track record in LA where I lived for a while....I bought in at 29 francs to the share...I won't tell you how many shares I bought....SO a picture of Euro Disney is the last thing I want.... — Thomas You and I may be doing business together. I will send you a detailed mail. Regards — Cheree I enjoyed your photos of Paris very much. We just returned a few weeks ago from a trip to London, Paris and Normandy and I am now in the process of cataloging my photos. Your descriptions helped me remember what I had taken pictures of. Thanks. — Sherry What a great web page!! I'm thinking of a surprise trip to Paris to propose to my beautiful girlfriend. Your page has given me lots of ideas, do you have any particular, extra romantic spots that I should consider? Many thanks! — james I found your web site by accident. I love it a lot. I'm staying in Paris for 6 months. My fav place here so far is Monmarte. I am slowly getting used to the metro system and it's quirks. Good luck with your career here. It must be hard to find work!?! — Julie Nice sight, I am going to Paris in October and your information has been very helpful! — Holly Hemming Bonjour i found your site very useful for my school research merci — Steph hi anthony a big thank u for birthday wishes. i will be eight soon.i love the pictures of paris and metro. — sujay Salut! Wonderful site!! I have read a very interesting article about the Opera de la Bastille. Would you by any chance know where - on the internet - I can find more infomation about the house. Specifically, I am looking for the stage specifications and architects plans. If you can help I would really appreciate it. Thanking you in advance. Stu — Stu Salut! I found your website accidently, and i am very glad! I love Paris and have had many questions that have been answered by you! Merci!!! I have visited almost every link, and nothing has been boring at all. Your journal entries are exact and precise, they make their point and thats it. There is no useless information, its just the exact thing a person needs to know about Paris! You are a remarcable writer that provides great information! thank you. P.S. The Pictures are astonishing! — julie Bonjour Chouettes photos, Ca fait du bien de voir sa ville un instant. Je vais y faire un saut bientot cela dit... et puis Boston c'est pas le pire non plus ! En tous cas de tres jolies photos, ca me donne envie de m'y remettre. Je crois que je vais me repasser un coup d'Amelie faisant des ricochets sur le Canal St Martin :-) Florent — Florent Our 16 year old daughter is on tour in France with the Kentucky Ambassadors of Music, USA. We have been pleased to follow her travels through your webpage. Bravo! — Jane Kimbrel Just returned from my first trip to Paris. Your comments on the Louvre were enjoyed and accurate :-) — Ruth Came across your sight when I was looking for cool wallpaper for my PC. The shots are really nice, and I took a few to use. Detailed I must say. I think I'll check back when I have more time. — mtears Took me some hours to explore your site, read various contents, but I do not regret it at all. Reminded me of many things (for ex., my old Brother matrix printer). I had hoped your Guide of the Paris underground transport would be full of tips and tricks for the Parisian experienced subway traveller. Well, it is not, but certainly still very useful for a majority of French and foreign visitors. Congratulations, it is a very interesting site. — Jef I never go anywhere because of my health.This has been the most wonderful thing in most of my life except for my family.Thank you so much! — Pat great site...what content management system do you use? great snaps...very informative site...well done. — Karl good to see somebody from mesa high well i have to look you up. — maryellen garfias Hi again, Anthony: I've come back again to see what you've added. I can't tell you enough how much I love your photographs. As you know, Paris is my favourite city in the world, but I only get to visit once a year. In between, I'm glad I can visit through your fabulous site! Still hoping work with you someday! Shari www.sandcastlesweddings.com — Shari Beck Bonjour!! I really enjoyed all the pictures and information you have displayed throughout your Photo galleries. I will be visiting Paris in October 2004 for my honeymoon and have used your site as a reference with the information in my "Frommer's PAris 2004" guidebook. Thank you for taking the time to present your city. It is all wonderful. Au Revior, Kelly — Kelly Sent you an email concerning a trip we have planned and have not heard back. Please email me when you get a chance. Thanks, Carl — Carl Reply: Be sure you send e-mail in plain text. I get over 1000 spam e-mails a day and my filters throw away most messages that are in HTML. I do try to glance at them first, but sometimes legitimate stuff slips through the cracks. — — Anthony ps.. shame on us for bombing anyone.. bush_must_go davequ — Dave Queen Je m'ennuie de vous mon frère, Je suis heureux de voir votre journal une fois de plus. Svp faites-moi savoir sont vos jours, avec un certain détail. Avec beaucoup de daveq d'admiration — Dave Queen Hello Anthony, the cassualties doesn�t exit, I was looking for some information about Shakespear & Company Bookstore and I got into your website, I do found it fun and helpful, congratulations... — Augusto Gamboa Intrigued as to where you find the time to create such a website. Looks nice though — alex So nice to see your journal again .It was one year ago today that I arrived in Paris. I stayed nearly a month. I am having great yearnings to be there again. But it won't be possible this year. You make me remember the city I love. Thank you. — Janny Hello! A very good hompage, with very good pics! I haven't found any French website with better shots :-) — TMD None at this time, thanx any way. Hay have a blessed day. :-) — Linda Excellent website, I am looking at it as part of planning a holiday in July 2005 for myself and my teenage daughter. — Brett You have a fabulous website. I just finished reading your journal (the whole thing) It was great,I felt like I was right there. The photographs that accompany the text really make it come alive. I hope all is well with you and thank you for making my day a little brighter. :) — Jackie Vasile Thanks alot this site helped me alot on a school project... — Joe I'm glad I found your site. We are doing a house exchang (plus car) for 4 weeks in La Defense, Paris. Any information about La Defense, getting out of Paris and driving in France, etc it would be appreciated. Bill — Bill Magee This is my first time in Paris. I am here for three months teaching marketing and entrepreneurship to American students studying abroad. Thomas M. Keel, M.B.A., B.B.A. Ph.D. Student; Graduate Teaching Assistant, Georgia Institute of Technology, College of Architecture, Building Construction and Integrated Facility Management Program Thomas.Keel@coa.gatech.edu — Thomas Keel cool stuff.... keep on truckin — Frank I faithfully kjeep checking and spending time on your site and I am worried about you anthony. Your journal is so far behind and I do hope all is well. I feel as if you are a friend because I too love Paris. I do hope all is well with you. — Janny I was searching some information on Uni of Paris I, and I run accross with your Web site. Thank you for the Info on Sorbonna. — Nyamdorj I like your site. It is very well done. Did you write it yourself? We will be in Paris in September. Bill & Maxine Jackson — Bill I love the all of the artwork it's great. — Chrissy Came across your site when looking for project information on the Eiffel Tower for my son. I spent a long time wandering around and just admiring your work, and the beauty of Paris in particular. A fantastic, easily accessible site with better information (I especially liked the FAQ) than most of the other sites! Thanks for your efforts and all the best. — Judith Thank you so much. Your site helped me so much with my project! The only thing that your site could use are the types of phyisics experiments that have been done from the Eiffel Tower, and once again, THANK YOU!!! — Brandon Hi Loved your website. We lived in Rueil Malmaison for several months many years ago. When we left to come home I felt a terrible sadness and sense that it would be along time before I could return... it has been nearly 20 years- your photos took me back to a good time in my life and I sincerely thank you Que Dieu vous benisse — Maribeth Curry Your site is amazing, thank you.I'm coming to Paris in July with a friend, and now can hardly wait!!!!!! — Donna Great site, found it while looking for an exterior picture of The Louvre to stick in the back of a shoe box for my son's school project. I'll be back. — Marilynne I found your site while looking for some info for my photography asignment at school and ended up clicking on this and that and the spending an hour looking at information about France that I didnt even need. You've got a great site, with so much information packed in! Thankyou. — Samantha I stumbled upon your site while looking for a picture of a replica of the Statue of Liberty in Paris. I visited Paris in 1999, and recently I was telling my brother about the smaller version I had seen in France. Every picture I found online was of the small Statue of Liberty by the Pont de Grenelle, but the one I remembered seeing was much smaller. I finally found a picture of the tiny Statue of Liberty here on your site. I have since been browsing, and your pictures are fantastic. Makes me want to return... — Ashley What a wonderful resource. We will be in Paris tomorrow 14 April and plan to use your site and perhaps give you a call for a tour. Bill — Bill stephen — ew! Your photographs are wonderful. You captured the essence of PAris so much that I felt like I was back there. Thank you! — S Found this while searching for prices for the Eiffel tower! What a fantastic site! I studied in Nanterre during 94/95 and really did not make the most of my time there which I now regret! Been back loads of times though and am back again this coming Friday(Good Friday) with 43 school children! Keep up the excellent work! One question; what is your occupation in France? Best wishes Sharon — Sharon Wallace I don't remember how I came across your web page but, I am glad I found it! You have created a very interesting, eclectic and useful web site. I am presently studying French with a native Parisian tutor and hope to learn enough to make my upcoming trip to Paris much more enjoyable. Your web site has given me some valuable new information. I am a photographer as well; I enjoyed your many photographs. Thanks for a great web site! I look forward to visiting again. — Gerard Tripptree I have been to Paris and I sure wish I had seen your web site first. I found it difficult to navigate when you don't speak French or know the locals. You would be a life saver. — Sherri Wow! You are a modern Robert Doisneau! Honestly, this site brought back so many wonderful memories of my time studying abroad in Paris that I am instantly going to travelocity to start planning a return trip. I love it, I love your pictures, and I must say that I love you! — Erin Nice photos! Can you take some photos of the bar "Les Trois Mailletz" and show them in the gallery? Jacqui: How would you feel if I contacted you through the net, asked you to do something and called you a greedy bastard if you wouldn't do it for free? — Heikki I came across your website while looking for information about Paris, as I will be visiting the city in April. I sent your site to my son who is studying in England - communications and photography - and he thought your pictures were great, as do I. I just wanted to acknowledge having seen your site and to tell you I admire all the work you put into it, how much information you made available, and your great photos. Since I can only be in Paris for one day, your site may me decide I must see the Eiffel Tower at night! Best regards. — Cindy Fantastic! I will check back regularly. Continue the good work!! — Brian Great Job. My wife, my Son and I were in Paris last Summer. While viewing your pictures, we kept saying "Yea, we saw that", "I rememeber that place"! Keep up the great work. Makes us want to go back for another visit to Paris. — Daniel You are a bastard. Thanks for no help at all. Pity everything today is about greed. Yours is enormous. — Jacqui Reply: Hmm … but access to my site is free (?). — — Anthony Mr. Atkielski, you've done an excellent job showing Paris up close & personal. Your photos give viewers, like myself, a glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary citizens of Paris. During my first visit in 1990, I was rather intimidated due to not being fluent in the language and not having a guide to show me around therefore, was unable to truly enjoy the city, its people and the surroundings. Your down-to-earth and informative site including your photos have inspired me to revisit the city with a new confidence to explore - and this time around, properly acquiant myself with residents of this great city. Once again, Thank You - Dale — Dale Pagkalinawan Hi, I am a French teacher in Illinois. I teach 7th and 8th graders. We are working on our Paris unit and I found your comments helpful as my students are asking so many questions-such as how much does a meal at McDonald's in Paris cost? I would like to show some of your journal to them as it answers a lot of their questions. — Cathleen I came here through Google... was searching for fastest trains when I came across TGV.... nice commentry.... I liked it... Keep up the good work... — Jose Simon what do you prefer cash or something you want to get (books,etc.) :) — dimitry Reply: Cash. — — Anthony Hello Anthony. what a nice site you have. I enjoyed looking at the photos. I have a site, rudimentary but tells a little about us. oregonsfinest.com We will be in Paris September 2004, would enjoy meeting you. I enjoy digital photograpy. I have a Fuji PS2 camera that takes pretty good photos, but in some cases, not as good as film. Fuji is coming out with the PS3 that is supposed to come close to film, we shall see what the reviews say. Best regards — Bill Jackson what is the location of the eiffel tower — dimitry Reply: See my Eiffel Tower FAQ for answers to questions about the Eiffel Tower. — Anthony are you an american in france? — dimitry Reply: Yes. — Anthony do you know how far it is from new jersy to paris — dimitry Reply: Thousands of kilometres. — Anthony mabey if you try highlighting the "donations sign it will attract people's eyes and they'll leave you one.tell me what you think about my idea. by the way what do you prefer- a thing you want or cash? — dimitry Great site, will spend more time there when I have it, but where's your picture? May want to enlist you as a guide and would like to know more about you... — Carl hi me again i got a qustion-can you find some history on the eiffel tower for me before march(your site is great)? — dimitry i think your site is great.i'll try to get you a donation! — dimitry Il tuo sito è veramente completo, ben fatto, immediato nella consultazione e semplice da comprendere! Anche le foto sono molto molto belle. Bravo! — Floriana Wow is all I can say, Paris has always been a city very close to my heart since I lived there as a teenager in 2000, Your photos rekindled a lot of memories of places that truly awe struck me, and showed me some places I completely missed, thanks for your work and showing a side of this amazing city that many people unfortunately miss, it seems I've got a lot more to see and do back in Paris when I return, Thanks and best wishes — Morgan Hello, I came across your web-site purley by accident and thought that I would sign your guest book and at the same time ask you if maybe we could be related.? — Deanna Wonderful job! We are planning to vacation in Paris next year and your site has provided very valuable insights and ideas. — John and Jessie Wonderful photos & information! Thanks! — Mme R. AWESOME website. I love your journal and hope you update it soon — Lori I enjoyed your unconventional photos of the Louvre. Never been there myself, but your pictures helped me see it more "realistically!" Nicely done. And your comments are nice too. — stephanie good site but you're a fucking dick for not allowing people to save the image and view them in their documents. quit being a greedy whore. okay thanks — nick Reply: Nothing prevents you from saving a copy of an image on my site, and anyone glancing at my Image Licensing page will see that my personal-use policy is far more liberal than you imply. — — Anthony Thank you so much for the grant tour! — Quinton E. Gaston I love your web site. I have always been so fond of Paris ever since I was a little girl. I hope thanks to your website I can someday visit. Thank you! :) — Leticia Your website is great!! I'm going to France in April with my French class and really enjoy exploring your site, especially your Paris Journal!! — Emily Found your site by accident, loved it. Thanks for photographing "our" Paris. — Val & Mike Resounding applause for all the work you've done keeping your site current and exciting as always. When I get lonesome for Paris, your site is always there to comfort me. Thanks so much. Your site is one of my favorite places to visit and I don't have to even leave home. — Sherry Hello Anthony, we're here again, and wishing you well , am glad you're still around with your camera and that you kept me on your mailing list, have a great day or soiree and who k now maybe we'll see meet one day taking a picture of the same, but from a different angle ! cheers and 'til later, Lucas. — Lucas Hi, Anthony! I'm a 4th year French student who just happened to stumble onto your site while working on a project. I'm actually in class at the moment, so I'll be brief and say that I really like your site--especially your "Paris Journal." Paris seems beautiful; I might go there for Junior Year Abroad during college--well, either Paris or London...I haven't made up my mind yet! Anyway, good job with your site! :o) — Lauren Reply: Thank you for your signature. I'd e-mail you a thank-you note, but you're on AOL, so I can't (click here to understand why). — — Anthony i've never been in Paris an i dream of the idea of someday going there but all of this time i've been searching for the way to aproach to that particular parisian way of simply living their lives sorrounded by bright and dark sides. I found my way of meeting Paris by your descriptive words and ur magnific pictures. Thank you — Yasmin Castillo I might be interested in a tour at some point, currently I am gathering information. My best to you, Sincerely, Cristine — Cristine Perry I looked at your Journal..GREAT......... — TALLPAUL Gosh Darn Heck and Shuckins.... you photos are good....... — PAUL Very interesting website. Your photography is quite nice. — Scottie Outstanding website. Great design, well written, outstanding photography. Inspires me to build my own website. We used to live in France in the Paris suburbs -- Le Vesinet and St. Nom La Breteche. We know the area well, and have enjoyed seeing your photographs. — Ed good website for a report on something — kim I was playing around with keywords on AOL and put in the original spelling of my maiden name. My grandparents names were Louis and Mary Atkielski. My father (name now Atelski) was born Andrew Atkielski. Sometime (well before I was ever born) my dad and his siblings changed the spelling to make it easier to pronounce. Just thought I'd say Hello!! Related, I don't know. — Brenda Williams (maiden name Atelski, changed from Atkielski) Reply: We probably are related in some way, since there aren't many people with this name or variations thereof in the U.S. Unfortunately, since AOL throws away all the e-mail I send to it, I won't be able to reply to you by e-mail. — — Anthony Excellent site. We spend a lot of time in Paris and benefited from your experience on our last trip. We will be moving there this spring and hope to meet you some time. — Larry & Claudia Frame this site is very interesting it has a lot of valuable information and has helped me do my school work. thanks — gemma Couldn't access your homepage for a while last night so I guessed ......Lovely to see your Personal Paris Tours page is finally up.

Where you originally from? How did you come to live in Paris? I fell in love with the city...thank you for your efforts..it is much appreciated! — Jill Anthony: Enjoyed very much finally getting to meet you and sharing dinner. I hope your tooth gets better as I occasionally spied you grimacing over the charcroute. I am compiling my favorites list of your photos, etc. that I want to buy so you can send me a quote. I can't wait to get some of your hi-resolution work purchased and in my hands so I can finally enjoy your work as it should be seen. A bientot, daveq — Dave Hi, I'm Suveera, Shelley's told me a lot about you. I'm very impressed with your photographs and would like to buy a few. Sending you the list. Wish you luck. — suveera Just learned of your web site through my sister, Dot Welch, who lives in Mississippi. I look forward to browsing your interesting galleries and scenes. — Elford Recently, I found your site in a search about photos from Paris on the web, I'm just knowing but I already love it. I love Paris and your photos and discriptions (Paris Journal) of the city are great! It's like to see Paris with my own eyes. It's a wonderful trip. Thank you and congratulations!! — Aurea Borne I visited Paris at the end of the heatwave (Aug 12-15) and enjoyed the opportunity to revisit it through your web site. You're doing an excellent job with the site. Keep it up. — Karen hello Anthony, My brother (who is sitting next to me now) have been visited your web site since 1998. He got one question since then - what is your native language. You arewelcome to checkyour account at amazon btw. We failed to reach "Friends" miror of your web site from amazon btw. Please fix it. BTW we (I mean my company) may implement credit card support at your web site for really cool amount Wish you every success in your noble business Sergie and Unton from GFL (God Forgotten Land) — Sergie Enjoyed visiting your website. Felt like I was touring Paris with you again, but without the extreme heat. We have enough of that here...as you well know! I loved the "Paris journal" addition. I'll check it out regularly. Sandy — Sandra L. Angelle I love this site. I found it when I was researching for a speech I'm giving on France. I just visited there for 14 days this past July and I absolutely loved it. Paris is beautiful and I hope to go back sometime soon! I have a question - How many steps is it to the top of the Arc de Triomphe? Thanks! — Megan Reply: There are 284 steps to the top of the — Anthony Excellent Site. I wish I had come across this site before a recent trip to Paris & Disney in mid August. — James Francis Reply: Thanks. I'm afraid I can't answer you by e-mail because you are on AOL, and AOL throws away a lot of legitimate e-mail, including mine. — Anthony Hi this is the best website ever love u email me oon — Stacey Hi Anthony. Wonderful to see you have added a blog to your site - great idea! Since I am boycotting Paris and all things French for the forseeable future, it's neat to read about what is going on there. Thanks for the little birthday message, too. Love Tereen — Tereen Hough Elisabeth Tempe, ArizonaUnited States of America Thursday, August 14, 2003 Although we've exchanged e-mail before, I just found your web site today. It's spectacularly good. I'm surprised many of your street scenes haven't been snapped up for a gallery show or a book -- or maybe they have? Enjoyed our recent visit to Paris and this makes me even more eager to get back there. -- Ron — Ronald Found you while searching Bastille Day. — Edward Hi Anthony. Are you an American in Paris? I was there during the Millenium countdown - hopped over on the bullet from England. I'll be there again next month when I'm on my European tour. — Miranda Than you, This helped a lot with my french assignment — Bonnie Liked your web site, and pictures, have been to most of them, travel there the last 3 years, I never get tired of Paris — Fran Lovely site Anthony. I loved your pictures! I hope to visit Paris next Fall! — Leslie I was there in '99 (during the Tower's millenium countdown) and again tonite - all over again - for three hours! Yours is a splendid site, well organized, particularly well-written,with a myriad of eclectic subject choices. And, not at all incidentally,a collection of photgraphs of which you should well be proud. (The following you should certainly delete before posting this letter: I suggest that you delete those few instances where you have denigrated yourself: You don't deserve them and it's embarrassing to the reader. As good as you are, one might even suspect that it is fake humility and you certainly don't want that.) Keep up the good work and I may be able to cobble together a few dollars to send your way. -r.a.s. — Dick Trying to determine weather to vacation in Paris or not. Your site is a great resource. Please keep it up. — Jeff You have astounding photographs of Paris ! I went there in 2001, and when I feel I miss the City of Lights, I look at your photographs, ant it's like I was there yesterday !

It has nice design, and *great* information and images. Nice work! Tom — Tom Hi Anthony, so happy to see you're back, and better than ever! Keep it up! — Anne I read Professor Finklematter's message below. I have only one thing to say - when you point a finger at someone, there are three pointing back at you. :-) — anonymous Your page is about paris? yeah right, u have nothing on La Conciergerie. I am doing research on it myself. The pictures I really good, but the information is the key. There is nothing on Marie Antionette, Charlotte Corday,Danton, no one. Ur site est tres stupede. Sincerely, Prof. Finklematter — Professor Finklematter Anthony - Many thanks for sharing all your special photographs with us. We will soon be taking our first trip to Paris (if we can find a reasonably priced place to stay - that is!) and your gallery has really helped us prepare. It's people like you who share what they know and love with others that makes the internet a rich source for learning. Thanks again. Barbara — Barbara Herskovitz Over the last couple of years, whenever I need a little "fix" of Paris, I would visit your website (which is fabulous). I thought about, but never sent a donation, and when your site was down, I wished then that I had. The other day when I clicked on your site in my favorites list, I was pleasantly suprised. I did not hesitate, and sent a donation. It's great to have you back!!! — Tom I am Shelley's friend from India. You've created a wonderful website. I even downloaded 2 wallpapers. thanks so much . i wish you all the very best in life. take care — shweta Hey! Good to see you back on-line! — wittig Bienvenue en arrière, mon ami!! The best Paris site on the planet. — David Queen I'm very glad to see your page is back and to hear that things are looking up a little for you. Yes, the grapevine works well! Gill — Gill Welcome back, Anthony, we're absolutely delighted!! More in my mail — Shelley Hey there, glad to see your pages back up! Hopefully that means a turn for the better... and that your email works. :-) — Elisabeth It's hard to believe two years have passed since my visit to Paris. Your photos have captured the ambience of the city. P.S. Glad to see your sight is up and running...Hope all is well — Michael Casciola TO ALL VIEWING and Enjoying THIS SITE, PLEASE TAKE a few seconds TO MAKE A DONATION I am making a donation directly to Anthony this week as I have been enjoying his beautiful photos for months now. Due to Anthony's artistic spirit and his humility, he does not (IMHO) aggressively and obnoxiously seek support as others sometimes do. We are not barraged on this site by pop-up ads. But even a labour of love costs money. Now there is a financial crunch due to costs of creating and maintaining a beautiful site like this. It would help greatly if regulars or people who love this site would help defray the costs before, god forbid, this great site is no longer available. From me, not Anthony, I personally and humbly ask of you to make some type of donation now. It is so easy to do. Just click on Help my Site! on the top-left frame. Thank you for reading this, and please forgive my humble but in my opinion necessary solicitation. Anthony, I apologize for posting this, but I felt it was necessary. Please put it in the guestbook or somewhere where it will be seen. Anyone with questions about my posting this, please feel free to email me for serious/sincere discussion or if you have questions. — David I LOVE TO VISIT PARIS I THINK ITS THE BEST THING FOR ME TO DO. — Tiara I have only looked at your site for a short while this evening, I came across it by accident looking up something on Les Deux Magots. I am impressed so far and enjoyed looking at some of your excellent photographs. I have a question - which might well have been answered by you on the site, so forgive me if so. Do you do this for a living or do you have another occupation - your site must take up so much time. Look forward to visiting again, thank you. — David S. Eley Great site! Maybe you should add how much it costs to get in the Eiffel Tower and how much a meal costs at it's reaturaunt. :) — Kendra I was very interested in the photographs of Les Invalides. I am doing an oral exam in French soon, on the subject of Les Invalides and I have to produce a portfolio. I hope you don't mind but I will probably use the photo of the Dome at night. I will look at the rest of the site when I have more time. Will visit Paris again in the new year - I wish that I lived there. Best wishes Angela — Angela M G Rose Your site is great! It is one of the most up-to-date sources of info about Notre-Dame that I could find. Keep up the good work and I hope this site becomes more popular. John P.S. Where did you find out about the statue of Viollet-le-Duc? That's hilarious! — John L. Hello, I just want to say that I was floored when I saw your Parisan pictures. I have never seen such magnificent and beautiful pictures in my entire life. You surely have a gift for photography! =) — l. Wonderful Site. I was first drawn here via a google web search on "flame of liberty" while looking at a photo we took last week in Paris and trying to get more information. However, I ended up spending a couple of hours looking at everything you have done. Great job. I hope you enjoyed creating it as much as I did viewing it. Having created some web sites myself, I know how much work you have done. — Stephen Nice site. so far the information has helped with my really hard French AS project. — Kester Great site son got lots of info for a France project. Disappointed couldn't find the picture of Gustace Eiffel though. Enjoyed your site — Judy I like your pictures very much. They are very beautiful. I hope I could visit Paris next month. — Michelle Yang J'aime Paris comme ma patrie. J'l'ai epjskeycej'4 fois. Je veux connaître autant que possible plus de choses pour son histoire. — Kourabas glad I happened onto your site. Keep up the views of Paris and enviorns. — william j your excellent text and photos helped me with my uni assignment thanks heaps BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS OF THE EIFFEL TOWER !!!! — Sam Originally came here (like most other folks) to check out the photos, since i just went to Paris this summer. Very nice site! — John Hi Anthony, I am glad I came across your website. The information is really essential for a photographer. Pls contact me at cheekeongng@hotmail.com. I need your help on my on-coming trip to Europe. Thanks in advance. — Ng I really enjoyed your site. I thought I would do a bit of "web browsing" this evening, and now it's 3am and I'm still looking at your site!! Very informative and fun to explore. Worthy of the web! — Kolby I enjoyed the site. It's one of the best designed I've seen. — C. Found your site while looking for info on shapes, thanks for an interesting website. Will visit another time when I am able to check out other pages. — LindaT. My husbands job is taking us to Paris for three years and we're making the preperations. I found my way onto your site to look for a screen saver to get our computer "in the mood!" What a wonderful site! I know I'll be visiting often once we arive in the City of Light at the begining of the year. — Kelly I don't have a comment right now, but I do have a question for my school project on the Cathedral of Notre Dame. My question is: What was the cathedral used for in the past? What is it being used for now? Thanks for your patients and time. Good day to you all. (P.S. I like this website because of the information it has on it.) — annanomous (Sorry for misspellings; I don't have a dictionary with me at the moment.) I knew I wanted to visit Paris. Your GORGEOUS photos make me want to come visit NOW!!!! — Pam Hughes Hi Anthony. Just wanted to say that you have a nice site with some great information and pictures about Paris. I can't wait to visit in November! Take care Craig — Craig Dear Anthony, I love Paris and I love your website. Your pics are some of the best I've seen on the web and your comments are informative and fun! Thanks very much for sharing. — Tim I quite enjoy the page about Paris fast food. It's indeed true that the service is inefficient, slow and somewhat unenticing. But my personal experience in July 2002 was that some of the locals just can't appreciate the concept of standing in line and be considerate to the next customers. Cheers. — Gama I just returned from Paris, and found this site with all its' fantastic pictures and information. For anyone who hasn't been to Paris, this is a must see to find out what Paris is really like. The 'Street Scenes' were fabulous. Great work! — Jeff My wife and I just now returned from Paris and Loire Valley. It's our third visit in 18 months, and as always, a truly fantastic experience. Your Web site is dead-on accurate in all respects, so visitors can use the information faithfully when they go there. I do agree that speaking the language, even just saying "bonjour" and "merci", will make a huge difference. Keep up the good work on the site. A bientot! Stan Gavin Baton Rouge, LA USA — Stan Gavin My wife and I just now returned from Paris and Loire Valley. It's our third visit in 18 months, and as always, a truly fantastic experience.

London, EnglandThursday, September 19, 2002 This is truly a great site! I can't get over the gorgeous pictures you have posted on it. I also enjoyed your essay on Fast Food in Paris. I hope to use it when I'm in Paris next week. I wish there were some place in Paris where a donation could be made -- my wife is very reluctant to give a credit card number on the Internet. I'll try and check in at the boot shop mentioned in Sandy's journal. Again, great site! — Roger Bourbeau Your site is very imformative. I am in the 9th grade and I use your site often for research on France. — Lacy Hey there, Anthony. I have no exciting lunch plans today, so I thought I'd come see what's new on your site. You get some great reviews in this guest book. :-) — E I am going to Paris in a few days, for business reasons, but as my hotel is near Gare de l'est, I wanted to go for a walk by the Canal St. Martin. Searching for infos about the channel I found your site and appreciated these great pictures. I don't know which part of your site I already was able to discover, but I kept most pictures I saw on my hard disc. Especially the wallpapers are wonderful. — Joachim I found your site in the usual way, and I am impressed with its depth. My favorite part was the Paris street photography. The rest is text intensive, as you say, and I know that represents real effort. Good work. — Chris it was cool — Paige I enjoyed your website and appreciate the amount of work that has gone into creating this site. Thanks! — Joanne Main I enjoyed your website.

Thanks and Keep up the good work! — Shaima Thanks for the picture and information on the Bastille. We are planning to go to Paris next week, and I wanted to get some detailed information. I had no idea it was just remains. I really appreciate the section on Web Security. It was well-written, easy to understand, and answered several questions I had. An American Temporarily Living Abroad Wiesbaden, HessenGermany Tuesday, July 16, 2002 Looked up information on Bastille Day and found your website. Merci. — Karen My birthday is 7/14/31.

Un régal pour les yeux. — Eloïse Séguineau Well I am sure you hear all the time how wonderful your site is and it truly is. I am moving to Paris in August and I was looking to recieve information on the best areas to live with out burning a hole in my pocket. :-) I have been to France 3 times and each time I have loved every minute of it! And in actuality, the Parisians were nothing but nice to me. I think it is all in one's attitude and consideration to another culture. Keep up the good work and please if anyone knows of decent areas to live in Paris email me please. Merci!!! Shadora — Shadora Robinette We just got back from Paris on the 31 May,2002. We had a wonderful time and I saw your web page and enjoyed looking at all the things that we saw. We took a bus tour to see all the sights and then went back to the ones we wanted to look at closer. Something that we did that turned out to be a favorite thing was the Bateaux Parisiens. We boarded at the Eiffel Tower and saw Paris come alive with lights as we enjoyed the dinner/dance cruise. I loved your back and white photos. That's really the way Paris looks. We found the French people were very nice to us and we enjoyed interacting with them. Your city is beautiful! This was my first time in Europe and it was our honeymoon. We had a wonderful time! Thanks for your pictures for all to enjoy. Ruth — Ruthie very good site. great pictures.really enjoyed looking at the site.was like a virtual tour...keep it up! — Amit I especially like the Pont Arcole photograph, although I made it to your introduction because of your commentary — Alyce Thanks for this travel...

Your camera tells it like it is - Many Thanks — Bruce Coaten loved your site.. the pix of the Eiffel tower are great. — Skeeter I was only checking on Google to settle an argument and discovered your marvellous page...congrats Anthony, it's great. Best regards, Ted — Ted Enjoy your site, will help plan next trip to Paris. — Mel Salut Anthony! Ok, I'll admit that I found your website by searching for Eiffel Tower pix. I actually added it to my Favorites about a year ago. I love Paris and can't wait until my next trip in August (not the best time of year to go, I know.) J'ai habite en France il y a quelques annees, et la France reste toujours pres de mon coeur. A plus. — Tara I love Paris!! I have only been here for a while and I'm living on my own, but I love it all the same!! — Leannea La Vallee This is a lovely wonderful site. I'm going to read every inch of it, and send more thoughts, and also I'll try to send money to aid. Keep up the wonderful work..this is a real gem.:) Thank you so much for being here Anthony, you made my day today..!! PennsylvaniaUnited States of America Wednesday, May 29, 2002 Wonderful site, thought I'd prove that you get people who come to it. I, too, came across your site while trying to make a french poster, but as a freshman in highschool beginning photography student i was enchanted. Beautiful! Tres, tres belle... — *kate* Salut, c'est encore moi...I saw your plea for aid and I hope my mom will let me give some tips in the Amazon tip box (i'm only a sophomore in high school; no credit card!). I keep coming back to this site because there's so much to see here! Your black and white slide show also gave me the idea of doing something similar for India; that's where I'm originally from and I'm visiting there this summer, so hopefully je pourrai prendre des bonnes photos pour en mettre sur mon site. (j'apprends le francais a l'ecole). Thanks again for this site and for the ideas it gave me (i will attempt not to be a complete copy-cat) and I hope I can make a donation. Au revoir! — Francophile Hello, I thought I'd be some "tangible proof that humans visit this website" and sign your guestbook. :) I think it's really cool that you live in Paris...I love France and French stuff so much but I've never been there. A regular francophile, I suppose. Anyway thanks for the pictures, they're great. Have fun in France — francophile someone did die in the making of eifel tower he fell of the first platform while showing of to his girlfriend after the end of workday bell was rung good site — k Thank you. Clicking through the photo gallery helps me forget I'm in my office and takes me back to Paris, if only for a few minutes. — Elizabeth Martin Thought your photos were fantastic. you're doing a great job. Well done. Thanks. — Warren Im sooo happy i found you site, i need some interesting facts for a frnech project, and found your site!! thanx you soo much!! there is alot of cool stuff on ur site and it hopefully will help me get a good mark!!:D thanx!! — Aliya Hi, I'd just like to say I like your website. I've just started to build a website with Microsoft Frontpage because I don't know how to write HTML or anything. I did a small report on Notre-Dame, Paris and I found your website to be the most informative. It's hard to find personal webpages these days, it all business now. Well, thanks for the Notre-Dame info. Check my website out if you like. There's not too much, most of it's for personal use with passwords anyway. Oh yeah, my guestbook doesn't work, don't know why. — Dan Borchert Hey Anthony, I am visiting your site after a year. It is very very useful resource for Francophiles. Keep the good job man!!!! I really dont know what appreciation you must be getting for your work, but hey!!!this effort is a reward in itself. I know my words wont satisfy your financial needs, but whenever I am in position to do anything for your site, please rest assured, I will do it. One more thing, why dont you go for ads?with amount of visitors that come to your site, I think you should talk to atleast one or two sponsors. Anyway, keep up the good work. Cheers, Sachin. — Sachin Kedar Très joli site, very nice site. En tant que Français et provincial vivant à Paris depuis seulement 4 mois je trouvais amusant et intéressant de voir Paris d'un oeil extérieur. Mais ce que j'ai trouvé le + amusant c'est peut-être la section extrêmement bien documentée sur comment prendre le métro ! comme tu le dis c'est un des réseaux les + commodes du monde mais apparemment, et j'ai pu le constater, les touristes paraissent parfois un peu perdus...(la section fast food est assez amusante aussi!). Et en lisant le guest book je m'aperçois que je suis privilégié de vivre dans cette ville et de voir la tour Eiffel tous les matins en sortant du métro à Passy ou au Troca !! Bonne continuation. — Romain Thanks a lot mate, finally the info I need for my assignment. would you believe that not even sites like paris.org have the name of the architect of the Arc de Triomphe. Feel free to check out my site, not nearly as good as yours, but i think its quite good for a first try :) — Ben Really Good Website it has soooo much with my school work!!!! Thanx Hippiechick — hippiechick Thanks for taking your time on this. The info alone is worth the wait! — Scott Your site was great. Straight forward information, no confusing information.

I am originaly from germany and i have visited germany from time to time, and i have done alot of Europeen travels in my childhood. this will be my first time in paris as an adult. i am sure i will enjoy it. — christian Beautiful Page !

Very well done. — jacques chirac screw you — j Just been to Paris for a one day visit a few weeks ago, only my second visit ever. Your pictures indeed show the city as it really is, and that's a quality I like very much, so they are great extra souvenirs and often I'm really taken by their beauty. Good information as well, about Paris your site will be the first I recommend. Even your English is pretty good (for a Frenchie ;-) Also, the b&w street pics seem to be downloading in the background? Very clever feature and the first time I've seen this. So I'll be back, to Paris and your site. Thanks for the very hard work! Guy 36 — Guy I have been living in Paris for four months and now that we have a house and my daughter is in school, I am ready to be a tourist. Thank you for this excellent resource - what an effort you have put into it. This is going to be my guidebook for the next two years. Our friends that are visiting us this week have gone to the Eiffel Tower as their first stop and have taken your excellent Eiffel Tower information for reading on the train today. — Penny i just found your wonderful photos from paris here...... i did enjoy your photography and your comments about the french people and their city. i was in paris several times and around in france and i love this country very deeply. i rather would be there then anywherelse in the world....... enjoy your stay....... heiderose — Heiderose Forby Yes, I am a real person, a teacher who was sent to your site for its pictures of stained glass I believe. I decided to look around and I think it is a nice site. I would love to take digital photos myself, but have a limited budget. Got any recommendations for less than $500? — Geneva EXCELLENT WORK MH — M. Hachikian I love your street scenes. I am so homesick for Paris and it makes me so happy to look at them. Thank you so much for sharing your pictures with us. And I did send you a donation so you can continue to share them with us. — Jeanette Although I do not live in France I have been several times and your website has been very helpful in my trip planning. Keep up the good work (and the good photography)! — Josh Well done Anthony. I'm going to Paris for the first time in about 3 weeks and my friend Richard (travelling companion) sent me your link. I was wondering if you know of an area where antiquities might be sold. A cluster of reasonably priced stores perhaps? Many thanks. — Ann Thanks for the very good effort. We are planning to stay at the Port de Plaisance de Paris Arsenal and you site made it all much more clear. — Martin Waigh I really like your page.I have recieved most of my information for my school report on your page. I really like the Question and answer page you have. It helps alot. But just one thing: It would help to add a picture of the Bells in the south tower. Much appreciation, bye. — Kira How funny - tangible proof! I haven't even seen the pictures! — A love your site -i'm a francophile on a budget - it helps get by until i can return - beautful photography!!!!! thanks for being on the web Oh wow!

I want to commend your black and white Paris , PHotographs are some of the best I have seen. You have a very creative cmpositional eye. I went to Paris in April of 2000 and shot over 450 picures in three days. I wish I had used more of that kodak black and white 400 , Paris is the perfect urban cityscape for black and white photography — michael tarillion i need some work on my web site. A friend (dave queen) told me about you thanks — roger I really liked this site it helped me find the exact informantion I needed on the Eiffel Tower. — Kayla Miller The photographs on your page are excellent. I only wish I had had more knowledge regarding photography when I went to Paris on a class trip in 1994. Love your wallpapers. I've bookmarked your page :) ~Cassie — Cassie Love your web site and have used your Notre Dame photo as my wall paper for over a year and get lots of comments on it. Going to Paris this spring and hope to attempt my own photos. — Therese Though I didn't find what I was looking for( I am an interior design student)this is still a great site.Keep up the good work — Shelley No one really cares about any thing that anyone ever had to say I'm a middle school foreign language teacher and heard about your site from another teacher.

Your photographs are lovely and I really loved the Paris Street Scenes. Thanks! — Susan I'm looking for a good friend of mine who, last I knew, lived in Paris. He is an immigrant from Hungary and can usually be found playing his electric guitar on a side street off of Champs Elysses near the Arc. Near the Virgin Megastore there is a Prisunic, and he plays there in one of the doorways that isn't used. He usually plays Guns and Roses songs, but he'll play whatever he knows. If you know the area, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check to see if he still goes there. He goes by the name of Fire, and he is a good friend of mine and I want to get in contact with him again. If you do find him, please give him the following message: Hello Fire, this is Dave. I have completed my work here in the US and will be returning to Paris in the summer. I sincerely hope that you get this message, and that things are well with you. I miss everyone there, and I think of you, Virginia, and Nathalie every day. I'm not sure when I will arrive, but it will be sometime in the summer. If you want to write me I can still be reached at 129 Vischer Ferry Road, Rexford, NY 12148. Please include something to let me know that it is really you writing me, since I am posting this message on the internet, and who knows who might respond. I miss you all and I will see you soon. -Dave — David Am looking forward to seeing more of what made me stay on the site this long on my original visit - searching for my grandfather's burial info. — Di A very nice web site, with some interesting information & pictures. — Anthony Challis Hi Anthony, I enjoyed your site very much.

I have learned many things here. I look forward to visiting Paris again. Thank You! — Chad Wagner Anthony, Your site has grown to be quite impressive over the last few years.

You captured the spirit of the city. Congratulations — Emmanuel Loved the photos. Retutned from Paris earlier this month, after a 7 day visit. This was our first, but hoepfully not our last, visit. We loved the city. You have a fabulous site. I found it looking up "Pont de Alexandre III" on the Web! What a beautiful bridge. I took at least 10 photos of it while we were in Paris. Thanks again for the wonderful site.I will be visiting often. — Nancy I think that I have already signed your guest book once before but I just wanted to write a short note one more time to congratulate you on your wonderful web site. I went to Paris last year as a student for three months and I miss it terribly. The pictures bring back so many memories. Keep up the good work. Bisous, Cecilia PS - I would love to see some pictures of the fountain at St. Michel and Boul'Mich! — Cecilia D. Please forgive a second note to your guestbook, the first dating back to -- I think -- April sometime. One of your Versailles photo captions contains a remark about the use of wide-angle lenses in order to include a more complete image of broad expanses, and I just wanted to say that I especially appreciated the fact that most of your images are not subject to the distortions of wide-angle photography. It gives those of us who haven't been fortunate enough to visit these places a chance to see them pretty much as they actually appear. That's incredibly rare, so really, um, thanks! Also thanks for the "thank-you". It was unexpected and very kind. Bruce — Bruce Very informative and hopfully useful to my students. I especially enjoyed the commentary on fast foods keep up the good work — Jacques Dear Anthony, Your site is fantastic for the photographs. Tres Bien — Shiv A most impressive site. Beautifully presented and very useful when I went to Paris for a week in July 2001. The web has few sites of this quality. Well done!! — Adrian Pingstone Fantastic site! ALL the photos are of the best quality and genuinely interesting if you really love Paris — Bob Spencer Hi Anthony, This could be my perfect page on Paris! And written by a resident. Great! I will read on.

Congratulation Remi — remi I just wanted to say how amazing your photos are! I particularly loved picture 12 in the art photos section. I have always wanted to go to Paris and now i want to even more..... thank you sarah — Sarah Hi Anthony. I haven't been here for a while. Decided to see what is new. Looks like there is alot! I remain in awe of your "little corner" of the web! — Patrice I love the beatiful pictures that you display on your site! Maybe one day I will actually get to vist!

The commentary was most interesting and appropriate. I have never been to France; thank you for showing me what I'm missing. — Jackie Thanks! great page.

I get a little carrried away and want to find our info about the monuments that we've seen. I decided to try the internet to search out some monument info. Yours is the #1 site regarding the Small Statue of Liberty. It was quite a surprise to see "Our Lady Liberty" there near the Seine River! I do have some additional questions, when you get a chance please email me. I will be adding your site to "my faves". Thank you. — Linda Kiel great site esp on notre dame very enjoyable and helpful — connie I found your site while searching for info about the restaurants in the Eiffel Tower.

They were especially inspiring since I am considering visiting Paris sometime in the near future. Your website makes it even more enticing. Thanks again for sharing your photos! — Don Dendy I did run across your website when I was searching for "eiffel tower photos" and they are terrific. I saved the night view wallpaper for my desktop because I leave next week for my first trip to Europe with 8 days in Paris and 5 in Slovenia and Italy.

I've jumped to your web page owing to my interest on digital cameras but I discovered a whole lot more than that.

But I wanted to ask your permission before I used them! Thanx! ^_^ — Joseph Hunter Nice site... — clipart Quelle surprise! To say the least, your photographs are outstanding. I can't image how many hundreds of hours you must have put into this endeavour. I been to Paris many times, even as long as a month, but I could never match your eye or skill.

Photos are crisp and wonderful. — Joan Wenn die Anzahl Besuche im Monat August sprunghaft angestiegen ist, liegt dies sicher an folgendem Link: http://raetselrennen.sueddeutsche.de/html/frage15.php Viele Grüޥ, Ralf — Ralf Mr. Atkielski, I have already given "feedback", but, as your site is so lovely and simple to get about, I feel obliged to sign your guest book also. I loved your description of French schoolchildren munching on hamburgers. Thanks once more for your achievement. Sonia Adamova — Sonia Adamova Thanks for the info on the Tour d'Argent.

Reply: [...] So, you did find a use for all of that computer intelligence crammed inside your brain. :-) I also do a bit of web design on the side, and I've worked in the cyclical semiconductor industry since graduation from high school. I also managed to graduate from ASU with a BSEE. I now live in northern CA since leaving AZ in 1991. Got tired of the heat. Please feel free to email me, Shawn — Anthony I'm really impressed by your very beautiful artistic photograph. I appreciated beauty of Paris. Bon courage! — Akiko I loved your website! I feel as if I have actually visited Paris. Thanks for creating such an interesting site. — Karen I don't know what to say about your site because the comments on your guest book say all that there is to say. Its the best personal site I have ever seen, with wonderfull photos... and many other wonderfull things! Congratulations...and thank you! — Manuel Having a Bastille Day Party (actually get-together) and I seem to be the only one that knows what it stands for. Did a search and came up with your info on same. Printed out to let guests read about it. I have bookmarked your site as it looks incredibly interesting. For now - back to getting ready for guests. — NJChatters I found your excellent site thanks to Coca Cola, for a chance to win a trip to Europe, they ask "what day is Bastille Day celebrated on?" I punched in Bastille Day and I got YOU! Great information and photos. I was really impressed. I'll definitely visit your site again. Julie — Julie I am getting married and going to be living in France, with a Frenchman of course. I am planning the wedding so I found your website very useful and the photo selections are excellent. — Isabelle I used to teach French and wish that I had been able to use your website to get my students excited about going to France and learning the language.

I hope it's nice — sinetta I can't believe it - finally, someone who loves and appreciates Paris as much as I do. You truly are the ultimate Francophile! I've only been there twice, but my dream is to live there. I looooooove Paris. It's the most beautiful city in the world. I plan to move there in a year, so any useful tips you can send me would be greatly appreciated. I read your tidbit in your FAQ's about moving to Paris, but some personal insight from you would be invaluable since you're actually there - if you don't mind. You should really be proud of your website - it's amazing. The city of Paris should start paying you some big francs! :-) Nita — Nita Great pictures, it really takes me back to when I lived in Paris. — Ben A most interesting and entertaining site, Anthony. I was amused reading your "Rumours" page but I also liked your Paris Street Scenes series of photos. Were they all shot with your Leica M6? I know you from the LUG and LEG, of course. Regards, Ray — Ray Moth Hello Anthony! I found your website by chance and I love it! Keep those photos coming! I was in Paris back in 1991 on my honeymoon! We had such a wonderful time and Paris was as gorgeous as I thought it would be. I long to come back to Paris again very soon and see all the other sites I was not able to visit. Your site is very informative and I was absolutely fascinated with the story of the Bastille (I love Lady Oscar, I don't know if you know this japanese cartoon)I didn't know that their were remains of it, WOW! I love the french history and that is why I love Paris. Everywhere you turn there is something beautiful to see. Have you lived in Paris you're whole life? You are soooo lucky that you live in such a beautiful and historical city! I live in NJ just across the river from Manhattan! How old are you? I would love to e-mail you once and a while and have a connection with someone who lives in the city that I love! Talk to you soon! — Josephine Gadaleta Just came home from seeing "Moulin Rouge". I must say I left the theatre feeling breathless. I really like the first movie "Moulin Rouge" which came out in the 1950s. There is no comparison. The first one was about Toulouse Letrec, this one more about the "restaurant and entertainment". I cant compare the two movies-they are so different. — m.auwaerter Awesome page, I love the Paris Street Scenes, makes me homesick! — Jerome your web site is awesome.. thank you for sharing.. i am trying to locate a site where i can go inside the chaple of the miraculous medal shrine at 140 rue de bac.. can you help? thanks, beth United States of AmericaTuesday, June 26, 2001 Interesting! — Andrew I haven't seen your entire site yet, but I just looked at your black and white photos and I liked them a lot.

He came to the U.S. sometime between 1907 & 1911. Would you know of any way I could contact the Sorbonne to see if they have any records of him that far back. I love your pictures.

Fabulous! — Julie Oltersdorf i'm not gonna tell u how amazing your site is...i'm gonna tell u that i only read your INTRODUCTION!!(till now)..satisfied??by the way,in Lebanon,we've got a nightlife street too,&it's called "Monot",full of Pubs&restaurants...i'm sure u will enjoy it as much as Rue Mouffetard,if u come to Beirut one day. — Carine Farhat-Seif Viewing your wonderful photos took me back to the 10 days I spent in Paris in 1985, the year before my son was born. — Ariel Ky Can I say anything that will not add to the mountains of kudos you've already received? Not that you are undeserving at all, but how would you remember one more little expression of amazement apart from the others? It will not do--you must allow me tell you I adore this site. I loved the street photos and even the "touristy" shots. After studying in London last year I visited Paris (and all the tourist sites!) at the same time as you, apparently. I wonder if we ever passed? Thank you for this site. — A. Leah Mitchell i love the picture of La Sorbonne Monday, April 23, 2001Thursday, January 1, 1970 Thank you, this site was helpful in obtaining more information regarding the Viaduct of the Arts in Paris. — Verene M.

The photos are breath-taking and the information so complete. You have obviously spent much time, but your labor is greatly appreciated. Thank you again. The Wiseguys. — J. This is a delightful site. The photographs are beautiful--that's what drew me here initially. I'm so glad I decided to browse--I laughed, I cried, I cheered. Though I'd rather be in Paris, my time at your site was a pleasant diversion. Thank you! I'll return. — Karen Halloo Anthony. Since I have a business trip to France coming up next month, I figured I would check in with the most informative Paris site I know. I shall absorb the subway guide, as I don't have a lot of time to waste. And Fast Food will probably be my lot as well. (I hear that street vendor crepes may qualify as fast food, if you have any recommendations on that front.) Adieu. — Ron Warrick Your web site provided all the inspiration I needed for my first trip to Paris...Thanks! — Michael Casciola From Wallace Stevens' "The Poems of Our Climate" (last stanza) — Mary Just dropped by for my periodic perusal of your site.

Best site I've found for pictures of Paris. Thank you! — Heather Hi. I'd like to thank you for giving me an occasion to find Sorbonne photos.

However, thanks to your page, I've finally foun something BIG (I mean photo size) enough to stop my quivering hands from suicide. Thanks again. w. — Wojtek Aniszewski You have a great site with amazing pictures... that's it only thing i din't see was a picture (drawign ) where all the bridges over the seine to the little boat eiland (if not mistaken) ou know of a site where i can get and airial photo of this? pardon my english i'm better in writing dutch .. et je parle francias un pue... cya hope you send me a mail — Boni K. i visted Paris in spring and loved every minute.Looking at your pictures made me relive every wonderful i spent there Thank you for such a great site. — Sharon I like your site, but I can't find facts. — Richard Hi.

Best wishes — Paul I have very much enjoyed all of your web site. We plan to visit Paris the first part of June and this is a great help! Thanks! — Nita I quite enjoyed your beautiful photos, and your clever, light-hearted insight on them. It makes a young, day dreaming girl like me ache to visit Paris. — Koko Stucki I've just begun looking around your site. Paris seen through your lenses is more believable -- and no less enchanting -- than it is in the more aggressively promotional pages available elsewhere... — Bruce Neal Hello! I'm From Korea — Hye-Ji Jin Paul and I are both involved in HOA activities. — Dr. Louis A. Bajkai A beautiful labor of love.

We now know the entire history of these two monuments as well as the Louvre and its history after completing this project. I have been to your city twice before but without the background I now have acquired. — Don Chrobak I must say, these pictures simply took my breath away!! You've done a fantastic job capturing the essence of this marvelous place. Your comprehensive research will be most helpful to me, as I am currently working on a project on the Notre Dame Cathedral. Thank you very much; your website is the only one I've found that is actually helpful. You've taken a lot of time, it seems, putting this wonderful website together. You should be very proud!!

But it's great work! Now, if you would only leave a picture of yourself here . — Donald A. Richman I found your site through a (you guessed it) search engine while trying to locate photographs of the Notre Dame Cathedral for my niece's school project. Since she is now asleep, I will let her view the site tomorrow; however, I wanted to let you know just how much I enjoyed your site. The photographs are excellent, and, believe it or not, I actually read the introduction first! I also inspected several items beside the Photo Gallery. You have the best personal web site that I have seen, and I hope, someday, to visit your country. (By the way, my niece was born in France and only moved to the US recently.) Thank you for the excellent site. — Susan Merci de m'avoir refait découvrir Paris que je croyais bien connaître. Bravo pour le choix des photos. — François Dear Anthony, I absolutely love your site! In August, I returned from my first trip abroad to Paris. Shortly after, I discovered your site. I visit it quite often (it's marked as a "favorite") to see the city I fell in love with. My husband and I have decided to return next spring some time between the last week in April through the middle of May. Would this be a good time? How about early April? I have so many questions I would love to ask you about your city. Would you mind if I contact you periodically? I hope to hear from you soon. Keep up the good work!

I should have taken more pictures. — Johnny R. I've been living in Paris for the last 3 months on a work transfer (6 months contract) and your description of it is pretty accurate.

Going back for the fourth soon. — Donna Suarez Very nice web site, I like the design. Your wallpaper pictures are wonderful they are Webshots.com quality. We are planning our 2nd trip to Paris. I can't wait to read your Metro guide. Thanks. Greg — Greg Anton Hi, I have just recently had the joy of meeting your sister, Suzanne, she works with me. Your sister is a wonderful person and I'm sure you are too. Thanks for your web page, I enjoy it, and the cool wallpaper!! — Debby Robinson I haven't written to you since the time of the Christmas storms. Thanks again for those pictures of the rising Seine. Hope all is well with you. I continue to try to inspire my French students every day. Thanks again for helping me with that job with your amazing photos. Ah, Paris in springtime! I only wish I could experience it! — Karen Hi, I have to admit that what you wrote was wanderful and true. I know and love Paris. I dreamed to live overthere since I was a child- hm , maybe one day my dream will come true. Anyway, your page helped me to write my "hellish" senior project. Thanks a lot. lol And — Karolina WOW Anthony!!!What a site! The best Paris pics I've ever seen! Wonderful! Your web-site transmits such a "taste" in Paris that after having spent there 2000 New Year's Day I decided to make a web site about Paris too! By far nothing like yours, but I'd like you to visit it and write me what do you think about it! www.scusateilsito.cjb.net — Andre Pieralli Intriguing up to date pictures of Notre-Dame, thanks a lot! — Ray Lavoie Hi, Anthony, just signing in this morning over coffee. I came here to borrow ideas for my own web page, and to just dig around. This place is quite large!! OK, talk to you later...bye! — Bob Wittig 324m89074njklef0932 — asvhasd wow, how swell you are.... if i could add more to that i would,... so here is a pebble, woke up in a can this morning tipped out, water poured on me now i'm the size of a full grown pea totally flawless, cheap, healthy, pure lunacy. Instant-maniac pack of twelve they say, we might look dehydrated now but just add water you'll see. ... :) — Nova Hi Anthony. Your website is great. This is not the first time I've been here. I originally found your site while searching for a photo of the back of the Venus de Milo. I was very pleased (and surprised) to find one. I have since made a website of my own artwork and recently added a link to your page. Keep up the good work and feel free to visit me. Agent — Agent4HARM Thank you for sharing your photos. I found your site via aol "search". It was perfect for my eighth-grade school project "European Vacation". I chose France, of course. Even though this is an imaginary vacation, I hope some day to visit France and see all the beautiful sites in person. This is a beautiful collection of photos! Thank you. Amanda you — Amanda Mancuso Dear Anthony, I, too, found your site as the result of a Dogpile search on "venus de milo." Then, for no particular reason, I clicked on your 'home' link. It had a nice 'look and feel', your writing kept me interested (very unusual on the 'net) and I've spent a lot of time in Paris. So I carried on clicking and reading and you brought me here. I became interested in your site because I'm struggling with mine. I very much enjoy photography and doing stoopid little animated .gif89a animations. But I don't have enough interest in web page design to spend time learning how to do it. So I'm stuck here in the middle between enjoying posting my work on the server and looking at it, but then being too embarrassed about my web non-design to show it to anyone. And at the same time being too lazy to do anything about it. And why in the world am I whining to you about it. I suspect I'm whining to you because I admire the way your site looks, and especially the way it's organized. It's a class act. Apologies for rattling on. Kind regards, Don Singleton — Don Singleton What a great site! I am a fan of Georges Seurat and French Impressionism and it's great to see actual photographs of the places that the Impressionists painted! — Stephanie Ruffin Thanks for a great site - for two technogeeks unexpectedly heading to Paris, this is a great place to look and start to get excited for the trip. I'm sure we'll back here back before we're there! Cindy — Cindy Rakowski Anthony; for every-one to know: ANTHONY ISN'T UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he just wants everyone to think that. true, he couldn't make money as a fashon model. but many of us can't! and this is to you, anthony: if a friend doesn't like you for the way you look, he/she was never your friend! — Alexandra flannigan Anthony, I was very pleased and impressed , to say the least, about your'e photos of France. I felt like I was there with you! My dream is one day to go to France. but till that day becomes a reality, I have been looking at pictures. And thanks to you I can say I have gotten the first decent look into Paris etc.. I just wanted tosay thanks and keep on snapping those beautiful photos! Bonnie — Bonnie My mommy, Carolyn Simon, aka Caro Dane, sent me here to take a look at your website. She told me to read the Rumors About Me section, which was amusing. I will be traveling to Paris at the end of May and she insists that I meet you. I'll be staying with my in-laws. — Leslie Bashaar the default country should not be usa. earthlings such as myself are insulted by such subtle prejudices. bien oui je parle francais. other than that. um. lovely photos. don't put yourself down. i am now convinced that you are handsome. b/c you also stated your lack of talent in photography (right, and i have given birth on mars) thanks for giving me a trip to paris while sitting on my ass in front of a computer screen. it was beautiful. and so, therefore are you. — Sarah I enjoy looking at the pictures of Paris.It brought back a lot of memories of our last visit back in — Larry Mobley Hi Anthony, I was referred to your website after admiring the pic on her computer. Now I have one of my own! Lovely photos. Keep taking them as I will be back for more! — Wendy Hi there. :-) Thank you for sending the replacement picture - please check the page to make sure you're satisfied with the copyright information. I probably spelled her name wrong. (Did I get my URL right this time? ) — Elisabeth i saw your commercial in the t.v. and i loved it.but i don't have the money to buy it.is there any way i can get that for free...please i need a lift in my life .and i think your the only who can help i m a usually a loner kind of person .i want to stay home all of the coz's i got this personal problems (appearance) may be you can help me .....coz's lots of people judge you by the way you look and they don't even give you a chance to show you r self to them....i reaal need your help ..hope you can help me thank's mr.robbin's — jericho bernandino Hi Anthony. :-) Just thought I'd come wander around your sight for a minute and see if you had any ideas I felt like stealing. Great feedback you get, here, you must find it encouraging. I get comments like, "that background is palm trees?! It looks like frogs packed in a box." So have you gone and looked at the animated GIF representing you on my page yet? Personally, I like it. :-) E! Elisabeth Tempe, AZUnited States of America Saturday, February 26, 2000 Hi Anthony! I am coming to Paris for my first time March 1, 2000. I found your web site through Alta-Vista and I am hooked ever since. Your web site gave me all the information I needed. You are the best! Thank you so much for an outstanding site. — Estelita Thank you for your lovely and informative web site! The next time I visit Paris, I will be much more informed and have an visit. — Brenda Giguère This is a wonderful site. Thank you for all the effort. I have been to Paris in Nov. '99 and long to be back every day. Your pictures are lovely and I will use them as wallpaper. Keep on taking pictures. Regards, helena — helena badenhorst Thanks so much for the information and pictures! The info was VERY helpful for my French project about the Arc de Triomphe. Thanks again! — Jana I added a link to your site from http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Academy/7665/Paris/Paris.html. Thanks much! — Dave Hood Paris is my favorite city in the world and I thnk yur site has the best pictures available on the Internet. I use your pictures for my wallpaper, changing about every week or so. Please keep adding new stuff, particularly of my favorite place (the Versailles gardens), my fvorite building (Notre Dame), and my wife's favorite place (Pont Alexandre III). We love your work! — Larry Parton Excelent site! I hope to visit Paris within the next year and your site has been extreamly helpful, (especially the photo and description of the outdoor toilet). Keep up the good work!!!! — Rebecca Ruiz Congratulations, it's been a long time since i've seen such a good site! I've come here to see Paris, the city i dream to visit. Paris is fantastic but it's even more magical when you photograph and describe it. I've already recommended my friends to visit your site. You're great! take care! :) — Lucia most of the people have commented on how remarkable the information( pics and all the staff) on Paris. well; I want to congratulate you on this brilliant site - which is the best personal one I have ever seen! I came to visit your site from another page- which was actually about photos of Paris. Curiosity stirred me so I had to visit your own web site. I was astounded by your talent and all the interest and effort and energy and time you have put here. It is a quality to be admired. Keep on.. — asuman t. Just an outstanding site. Intend to use it in planning our trip to Paris in June. Best of Luck and Thanks... Carl — Carl R. Mares Thanks (kiitos in finnish) very good Page and pics of Paris... — Esko Steen Thanks Anthony, (kiitos in finnish) I like your home page it's very good. I have visited two times in Paris with my family, veru fine place. — Esko Steen Beautiful pictures! Visited last summer and can't get over the experience!!!!Thanks for the best site I've found to relive the experience — linda dearth I love your site. Remillie Norsworthy was showing some printouts of your photos at a French teachers' gathering tonight. I'll be back. I'm just learning powerpoint. If I ever get good enough, I would love to include some of your pictures in my presentation. Solely for use in my classroom. — Marcia Lord it was helpfull to look at your site. i'm currently doing a project on public toilettes and the sanisette in france was very usefull. thanx — daniel Just dropped in to say hello. Greg Lejeune Houston, TexasUnited States of America Thursday, January 27, 2000 It's almost - not quite of course - like being there. I envy you your daily contact with such a beautiful city. My best wishes to you for giving us such a wonderful website. — Keith Tomlinson I love your photos of Paris! I miss Paris very much and feel homesick for her. I visited France in June of 1999, and have wanted to go back ever since. (Can you tell?) I appreciate art, music, and photography, so your site is perfect. Merci pour votre page. A bien tot! — Celyn ****** YOU are so funny . Loved your site . No, seriously: I’m actually so inteligant intelligant smart that no test currently within the ken of your pathetic species can possibly gauge the magnitude of my super-smartness. My IQ score has seven binary digits. I hold several doctorates (really fancy college degrees that you can only dream of), and I even own a few; the Internet site where I bought them had them on sale for ten bucks a piece, and I was clever enough to take advantage of the deal. I’d list all of my impressive credentials here, but your computer probably doesn’t have the bandwidth to download them all in less than a day. — donna Truly a remarkable website!! Makes me miss Paris even more. Plan to return next year...September 2001. The only thing your site lacks is information about you. I feel you are someone a lot of us would truly enjoy knowing. Will pass you URL on and return as often as I can. Thanks. Judy — Judy Evans Your website is so truly remarkable in all that it contains....; you should seriously consider posting a copy of your résumé and offer web design services to folks. Keep up the excellent work! — Christine Just at the beginning of your site so a comment ?? not yet but you were recommended via the bod that has a site with daily photo's of the Eiffel tower. Incidentailly if you are a yachting fan and support the United States you will be pleased to know that America One just beat Prada by a whisker today in the Louis Vuitton Cup races as a prelude to the Americas Cup to be raced in February here. — Alan Anthony, Some flashes of brilliance throughout the sight! I was in Paris during October and enjoyed it too much. I'll be studying there from Septemebr of this year - just because of this sight I'd love to buy you a beer! ~ Happy New year ~ — Pete Strangman Great pictures, an American's opinions of Paris! I MUST agree with you 100%. Parisians were the nicest people I met in France and they are very like New Yorkers! My best friend, who lived his entire life in NYC before moving to Ireland, said the same thing, "Only city that reminds me of New York. I could live here." Happy to see one of us representing the good 'ol US of A. so positively. Wit and humor too! All in all a great page. But DO go back and see Winged Victory! Look at the wind in the fabric as it ripples behind the legs. It's like nothing on earth. And you HAVE seen the Delacroix room I hope? hehehehe...... Problem with the Louvre is that it's TOO much in one place. An embarassment of riches. I'll shut-up now. :) — Jason Ashley Hi gorgeous! I came here to see if you had any new Christmas wallpapers up yet and, of course, you do! I dld the one of the Champs with the purple bagged trees (what's with that?). Hope to see you in January. love Tereen and Alexandra. — Tereen Davies I have visited your site often. It is the best I have seen. Thank you for the feeling that we are all on a walking tour with you. Great shots, best spots. How did you know exactly what areas I wanted pictures of? Amazing! — Lorri Bellotti Yes, I first fell in love with Paris (and my husband who was also studying there) way back in 1971. I have been fortunate to return on six other occasions with my own French students. This brings me to my main message to you. Thank you so much for the Paris photos and commentary. I did hours and hours of surfing to help my students locate websites that would enhance their Paris projects. Your site was, BY FAR, my absolute favorite. I can't begin to tell you how much you've already contributed to my students' excitement about studying Paris. Your photos capture the beauty, the excitement, and the history which is Paris. Your site was absolutely perfect for the format of the project we did. Thanks again. Oh, one more thing. There's no way you could possibly be ugly! — Karen Dear Anthony, Thank you so much for the wonderful pictures of Paris that you have on your web page. It helped me a whole lot on a presentation that i had to do on the city of Paris for my French 1 class. My entire class owes you for everything. Well that's about it because it is almost time for school to be out here and i have to get my stuff. — Lyndsey Shelby Hi Anthony, just a quick note to add my sincere appreciation for the work you put into this site. Great stuff. Hey, readers! Do you realize that this is without a doubt one of the BEST sites on the web, period?! This is better than most commercial sites. Thanks, Anthony, for reminding my how beautiful your city is, and for encouraging me to visit again in the near future. The photos make me want to book my flight tomorrow. Really, dear readers, if you haven't been there, it truly is the most beautiful city in the world, and I've been fortunate enough to see many of them. The people were friendly and helpful even to me, stumbling through some phrasebooks. — Rick Koenig I returned from Paris only yesterday and was back at work today when I stumbled on your site. I wish I had found it before I went to Paris but I cannot tell you how much pleasure the pictures gave me today. I know I will visit them often. — Rebecca Stamy Hi, Thanks for the lovely photo of the Eiffel Tower it is to adorne a home made Millennium Greetings Card made by my daughter for a school project. Happy Xmas and 2000! — Jackie Stroud Anthony! My daughter is studying in Montpellier this year. I am going to visit her 12/20. She was able to get an apartment in the Quatier Latin from the 21-27! I am looking forward with great excitement to my trip and hope to be able to view your web page(s) in greater detail before I leave. Merci for the details! — Monica B. I am very grateful to you because i will go to Paris to celebrate New Year...so you are help me soooo much...thanks!!! — Alen Anthony, What a wonderful site! I stumbled upon it looking for scenes of Paris at Christmas, and was delighted to find the gorgeous pics you have here to share! Some day I will get to see it in person! Thanks again! Sue Webster, New YorkUnited States of America Tuesday, November 30, 1999 Great pictures of Notre Dame!! I really like the one of the facade at night, it's so pretty : ) Keep up the great work!!!! — Claire need info on the champs elysees. followed a link saying, champs elysees info, then couldn't find anything but pictures and stuff — steve I grew up in France, and looking at all your wonderful pictures makes me quite "homesick". It really is a beautiful city - nothing quite like it over here. — Beth Thanks, I was looking up some facts for my daughters homework and I found your page very useful, I will pass it on to her friends. Thanks!!!! from sunny (not) Britian! — Trace Great site. Played here for about 25 minutes. Then I said, "Hey this is a great site !" — Kesh Do you know anybody called Anthony jannuzi, he leaves in Chandler, Arizona — Hans-olof Bonjour Anthony! I am coming to Paris for my first-ever visit in February 2000 and came across your site while searching for travel information online. Your firsthand information about the city and the Eiffel Tower is great! I also like your photography and artwork. The photos give me an idea of what to look forward to during my stay! Keep up the good work! — Sonya Hi Anthony! I'm just getting some info's on Paris (I'll be there from 30/12/1999 up to 02/01/2000) and I find your pages really useful....thank you! — Antonio Serwus Anthony! Twoja strona jest po prostu fantastyczna. Bylem niedawno w Paris i Twoja cudowna Photo Gallery przypomniala mi wszystko. Ah!! Paris, Paris... :) Jurek. — Jerzy Szymandera Hi Anthony!!! Your web page has some fantastic photographs! You are a talented photographer! I have an assignment on medeival architecture, and your page helped a lot! Keep on shooting!!! ~Susan — Susan Bonjour, I spent myself my childhood in France and your great photos of Paris remind me that this city is truly of the most beautiful ones in the world. I also like your commentaries (c'est plus ou moins de l'humour francais). You seem very mysterious, mais bonne continuation! I like that. Christine. — Hong Hi Anthony. Please come and visit us for Christmas! — Alexandra Flannigan Enjoyed reliving memories of a fantastic Paris trip my wife and I took in March, 1998 for our Honeymoon, thanks to your fantastic photos. They are much appreciated! — Jim Coker Anthony, I am putting together a presentation on Notre Dame's Rose Windows for a class this Friday (Oct. 15) and need a little background on you if I am to use you as a source. Just a brief discription of your qualifications - if any (Are you and academic? If so, where and what is your title? Or are you a professional, such as a journalist or architect? If so, what is the name of your company and where is it loctated?) If you could answer these questions for me as soon as possible, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, I will be expanding this paper for a class in architectual history. — Kurt G. Schlebecker I'm putting a 70 day travelogue online with a few pics, everyone's invited to swing by for a visit. Don United States of AmericaSaturday, October 9, 1999 Ihre Postkartenfotos von Paris gefallen mir. Mir f㫬t auf, daݠdiese Bilder, soweit ich das am Monitor beurteilen kann, technisch perfekt sind. Genau das ist aber auch das, was mich daran stört: Sie wirken steril, ich vermisse in diesen Bildern ein ganzes Stück Lebendigkeit. Ich bin davon überzeugt, daݠmir Ihre Bilder mehr sagen, wenn sie mit 'analoger' Technik in der Dunkelkammer verarbeitet werden. Für mich bedeutet Fotografieren: Entspannen von meiner Arbeit als Unternehmensberater/Programmierer. Und dazu möchte ich ganz einfach nicht die Mittel und Techniken einsetzen, die ich auch beruflich nutze. Viele Grüޥ Jost Mibach aus Wiehl bei Köln — Jost Mibach I'm doing an assignment on Paris and your site really helped me. The pictures are great. — Nina.P I love your photos of Paris. Far and away the very best photos of Paris on the internet. Which leads me to kindly implore you to take photos of the rest of France should you travel, or if you already have, to PLEASE post them! Most people who have never been to France know of only Paris, and aren't as aware of the beauty of, say, the chateau country along the Loire, the Mediterranean magnificence of Cannes and Nice, the countryside of Provence and the equally-photogenic Aix-en-Provence, the restored village of Sarlat, and countless other treasures (Chartres, Carcassone, etc.). I think these photos would make your already-unique site a truly one-of-a-kind homepage, because I have not been able to find any webpages on France which devote some energy to capturing greater France in photos. Thanks for listening, and thanks for your homepage! Michael — Michael Hi Anthony!!!Your sister Suzanne told me about you and you sound like a really great guy. I hear that you're into art, that is so great. I think that you have a really great web site. I really enjoy the picture of you ( I really thought that was cute) Well I really hope to hear from you and get to know you. Don't think that I'm kind of freak that is looking for marriage. Marriage is something out my leguea right now. You really have a great sister and that's why I would like to met you. Once again I hope to hear from you soon. — Luz Pictures are teriffic. I have visited Paris 7 times, in 5 diffenent months. Your photos bring back fond memories. When do Xmas decorations go up? Visited at Xmas 10 years ago it was very pretty. Plan on revisitng early Dec this year. — Lou Coronato I really like the new pictures of Versailles, especially the temple of love. — Tereen Loved the pics and descriptions. Plan to visit often. Thanks Anthony! — Lee Ann Johnson I visit Paris every 5 years and miss it when I'm not there. I certainly envy you living there. Your photos make me nostalgic. Thank you for the wallpaper. Please keep updating. I'll keep visiting. --Alice — Alice Falcone Bill T. suggested I check out your site. Certainly an enjoyable experience. I look forward to my second trip to Paris. — Jim Schuster I've enjoyed my visit and plan to come back again. I'm into photography a little via digital cameras. Some of your pictures are great. Bill Weaver Bill Weaver Hampton, VaUnited States of America Friday, August 13, 1999 Hi gorgeous; Looks like you have been busy. I really loved the new pictures, esp the one of the conciergerie - it is amazing. I take it the new lens arrived at FNAC?? See you soon. — Tereen LOVE THE PHOTOS I'M VISITING PARIS ON HOLIDAY FOR 6 DAYS FROM 15 AUG 99 — PAM ROCHFORD Your photos are truly magnificent. It made me feel as though I were back in Paris once again. Thank you for your time and thoughtfulness in sharing these beautiful pictures with everyone. Once again thank you very much. — Christine A Fisher Thank you for sharing your pictures of Paris. Im using the Seine-Notre Dame shot as my wallpaper. It brings back great memories of the times ive visited Paris. Thanks again, Greg — Greg Hi Anthony, Thanks for making such a great site! I am doing a project for school on France, and it really helped me! I was recently in Paris on vacation, and had a wonderful time in the city. I will never forget my visit!! — Allison I very much enjoyed browsing through your site. Your conversational tone made me feel as though you would be a fun guy to hang out with, and the information you provide about your town is fascinating and informative. My mother and I will be in Paris next month and I'm in the "information gathering" mode. Your site was helpful and your photos beautiful. Thanks Anthony! — Patrice Eastham Great Web Site, but there is no picture of you, at least that I could find. Cuz, Guy — Guy Casciola Phenomenal photos. Any possibility of other locations in the future? It's like traveling without leaving home. — K.E.Wilson Hi Anthony, It's been WAY too long since I last visited your site. It looks wonderful! I like the "new look." Nice going! — Dot Welch Anthony: Just loved the pictures of "Gay Paree", we visited youu your lovely city last year. After the pictures, the rest of your site got a little to weird for me. — rh Wonderful site. Very informative & your pictures are fantastic. Albert Aguiar Miami, FloridaUnited States of America Tuesday, July 13, 1999 Nice web site, Anthony. It's come on considerably since I first visited it a couple of years ago. I could have browsed for hours. Like the art! — Rob Naylor That was a pretty cool site - very interesting. Lots of information too! Anyone fancy visiting my site? — Kenneth Owen Hey Anthony! You're insane and I love it. I recently returned from a trip to Paris and enjoyed seeing your pictures, but I loved your in-depth information. Thank you for assisting me with info to use in my scrapbooks. — Lori Mowl Aloha, Anthony! Thanks for the AG99 photos. As always, it is superb. I wish I were there (well, either the AG or Paris would do, actually), but this helps! Your site, also as always, is delightful. A hui hou! — Jeanne Prickett Very nice website! Keep it up... By the way, You can visit my site too: I am involved in a charitable action, and maybe you can help me in my action More, I reccomend to you to visit these: Slot-Machines & valuable prizes Really funny pictures ICQ user? try RoboChat: Make your site secure: Web-Guard Smart Domain Lookup Forum for Webmasters listmill ListManager, have your own list Chat service If you like, you can add the links in your links page too. Costel — Costel Anthony! What a brilliant effort! I stopped by after going to peek at the AG photos, & have been wandering around here for hours. Even borrowed some wallpaper, to make me go Paris dreaming. Thank you. Barb — Barb Ridgway What an excellent website! It's one of the more comprehensive and entertaining pages available for Paris travelers information. We'll be there for the Millenium! ...we can't wait to visit your beautiful city. — Larry Kelsall Great Site! Your pictures are truly breathtaking, especially for someone who has never been to France. They only strengthen my desire to go there. Your web site is a pleasure to visit. I'll definetly return. Thanks, — Emma Mathis Hi, Anthony! Just dropped by to see what's new. I love the Rumors About Me page best of all still. Would you give me permission to use a printout of it with one of my classes as an example of writing in genre? Your writing is such an excellent example of how style can express as much as content! Take care, Gill — Gill Othen Congratulations on a well thought out web page with interesting, useful information. We are visiting Paris in September for our 20th wedding anniversary; I haven't seen it for 25 years, my wife has never seen it. Enjoy the pictures and comments, and looking forward to being a tourist! — Martin Milewski Hello again! When I previously signed your guestbook, I told you I was taking a trip to Europe. I returned June 18th, and I just wanted to tell you that I had a wonderful time. I thougt that Paris was beautiful. We took a night cruise on the Seine River.....it was awsome. The info you provided on your site helped me a lot, and looking at it now brings back wonderful memories. Thank you! =) — Courtney Morse Gee, Anthony, I'm not as interesting as other people who signed this book. But just so you know that I actually made it here as ordered.... — Elisabeth My husband and I just returned from a two week trip to France. Finding your webpage was great because it brought back all of our wonderful memories! The pictures are beautiful and we both put one on our computers at work to remind us of our vacation of a lifetime! :) — Jennifer Rydin I am using my friends internet so I have no E-Mail address but thanks for the information on the TGV fast train. I am 7 years old and am doing a project for school. — Rebecca Robson am visiting paris for first time in sept...thoroughlt enjoyed your site and got some more info than what already did via books and tourism package. Question....read in one of books that Les Halles is not very safe area even for sightseeing; am traveling alone and will be using metro and feet......what do you think?? Thanks, again, michelle — michelle I have the opportunity to perform as a Gypsy in an ongoing production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Your photos have enlightend me to the realities of what is may have been like to like back in those times. Thank you for the inspiration. — Gypsy1234 hi, just thought i'd sign your guest book, since i have nothing better to do, you know how it is. i like your pic, and the info here is great if you need something on france...keep up the good work, i guess. — Gwen From where do you hail? We must be related! Looking forward to your response, Bill — William T. Atkiels pretty pictures — Gooden Check out my web site. You will find many answers to what your looking for as well as a surprise. David Cheng Sacramento, CAUnited States of America Thursday, May 27, 1999 Lived in Paris, 1960-63. Started my photographic career there. Sold my first photograph to "Modern Photography" 1962. Your work is splended. Thanks for building such a great page to share and reflect on my pleasant memories. — Kenneth B. Butler I just came back from Paris a month ago and I just felt in love with the city. Your photos certainly brought back some wonderful memories of my trip. San Francisco is a great city, but Paris is far, far more spectacular. Keep up the good work! — Alfred Wu Your pictures KICK BUTT!!! — James Holt It's me again. I forgot to say... If I may suggest Les Jardins de Luxembourg... Tuilleries... THANKS! — Michelle Gemperle Hi! I hope you remember me. I'm the one who sent you to Parc Monceau a year or two ago for some photos. Again, I thank you for sending them to me. I was in Paris again in Nov. 1998. I can't seem to get enough of it. I dropped by your website to see if you had some pictures of Paris NOW and was happy to see your May photos so I can imagine being there right now. Congratulations for keeping up the good work! — Michelle Gemperle Just stopped by to see what you are up to now. Still looks great. I like the new pictures. Parc monceau looks lovely. See you saturday. — Tereen Hi, Anthony. I'm very impressed by your website, especially the 'Rumours About Me' section. You do have a sense of humour after all.....! — Ken Adams You have the most awesome site. I don't care for history, but after looking at your site, I craved for more all the time. You are so funny and interesting that I learned more about Paris than I could've imagined. I hope you put more dates to whence things were originally built built. And possibly a map to visualize where all the things are in retrospect to eachother. Again, loved it!! :o) — Sunee Thanks for making a web page about the speed of many trains and etc. For my physical science project I had to find the fastest speeds on various things. I haven't looked at your information yet but I just happy to finally find something that I can actually get into without doing an "illegal action" as the computer says. Thanks a bunch!!! You're a life saver, better yet a butt saver. Without this class I can't graduate!!1 — Karynn O'Banner My first trip to Europe, therefore my first trip to France, therefore my first trip to Paris. I intend to say little, yet listen intently. Bonne chance! — Jim Parker Hi Anthony, Am returning to Paris next week. I was surprised that your fast food page didn't mention the Left Bank's California Muffin Bakery, operated by a Ca. Girl that says this how she is able to live in the city she loves.

We were thrilled to find so much ... it has me wanting to visit France now, a country that had not intrigued thus far! I look forward to exploring more and wondering if you'll be soon taking photos outside of France as well? Thank you for sharing your talents!

My wfe took a little french in High school, I took German. I will be traveling throughout Europe if I take this position. Questions: Any good Ex-Pat web sites regarding living in Paris as an Ex-pat? Is there an International Community / School that is in close proximity to LaDefense and the Airport? What questions should I be asking that I may not have thought of? — Greg Wagner Hi, thanks for your web page, but I was actually looking for LAT/LON coordinates which I thought you had (based on the fact that I came here via another site with GPS locations of Paris sites and he said to reference you, so I thought you were the source). Nevermind, I've just come back from Paris, it was very beautiful, and I've got a swag of GPS locations myself, I'll try to find a suitable place to put them. BFN. Paul. — Paul Edwards We are planning our first trip to Europe on the end of Feb., '99 and have no idea what to expect in Paris. Your pictures and comments are a great help. A question - what kind of weather should we expect? Thanks, — Jim Dunn Anthony, your web site is excellent!! I am studying French and Spanish at university and I am hoping to spend 6 months in France next year. Would you say that Paris is a good place to live or should I consider elsewhere? — Louise Bennett Bonjour Anthony, J'habite à paris et je dois dire que vos photos sont d'une qualité excellente! Elles sont très belles et bien exposées. Félicitations. Olivier Collard Paris, FranceTuesday, February 9, 1999 Hi Anthony! I'm 16 and presently taking French II at school. We're doing a unit on Paris right now and this site is just awesome! I can't wait until I'm old enough to come to Paris, I don't think I'll ever leave because there's so much to do. I was wondering, do you have a pic of the Pompidou Center or did I just miss it? Thanks! — Leigh I found your Web Site while looking for information on the Latin Quarter. I am visiting Paris in mid-March and am staying there. I'm visiting Paris alone and have been told that I'll regret this because it's such a romantic city. What do you think? — Kathy I'm taking a group of students to Paris in March and have found your articles very informative. How can I find a website for FLUNCH self service restaurants? Do you know? MWWS — M.W.W.Spencer Anthony, I was directed to your site while trying to locate pictures of The Louvre. After several years of French class (it's been several years since they ended) I have dreamed of spending time in France! Time and funds (a lack thereof) often make us file our dreams and later think of them as regrets. Your photos have given me great hope that I will someday soon make my dream a reality! Thank you!

The last time I was in Paris was September of 1994. I long to visit again. I loved it and contrary to statements of people that the French are not nice is so wrong. The French were lovely to me, well all except for one waiter. There is just one photo that I would love to see in your Gallery, and that is a photo of the Eiffel Tower at night. Maybe some day you can add this. Thank you again for the lovely photos. If I ever get a scanner I'll send you photos I took while in Paris. I have lots of them. Also Pere LaChaise would be interesting to see here too. Au Revoir, — Rosemary Carter-Molnar I am to visit Paris next week, so have taken down some place names to see.

I'm visiting the "real thing" next month. — Beverly Your great site gave me some handy ideas for my own, just completed at the above address (& at www.moosejaw.demon.co.uk/).

I will indeed have some of my friends review them and send you feedback for "conveying visual information." Have a nice weekend! J — Jeanne Prickett Came looking for photo of key to the Bastille but enjoyed browsing through your page instead. You're too modest about Yesterday midi. It's very nice.

Your site is so entertaining and will draw one in for hours. In fact; I would probably benefit by "losing" the site again, but instead will mark and visit often - just to see what my saturation point is... (IN OTHER WORDS...BRAVO!)0 — Lidia G Wow! I only cam to find a picture that I could paste to a nesletter, and found this cool stuff...I may never get any sleep! Paulette Noyes Mt Laurel, New JerseyUnited States of America Friday, July 24, 1998 I chanced upon your websete while looking for something else and didn't go any further for about an hour.

Furry We were VERY impressed with your site, Anthony. The obvious care, consideration and content that you've lavished makes it a model for all of us!

I keep telling friends about it - it's no wonder a high point of the Mensa AG this month was a group of friends curling up together to see your site - and not just the bit John contributed, either. I visit at least once a month to check out what's new, and there's always something worth the effort! Talk soon, Gill — Gill Othen I quite enjoyed your home page. I was searching for your security FAQ's, but visited some of your other sites as well.

Spent a few days in Paris recently (late April and early May of this year) and it was like revisiting the places I visited there.

Your picture of the tower at night sort of gives me the idea that I should return to Paris soon and take a night time picture. Paris is a breathtaking city - you're lucky to have chosen the city you wanted to work in and move there. I've bookmarked your web site and will visit it on occasion. Many thanks, J.

I visited France over spring break and Paris was definitely the highlight of my trip. I envy you and anyone else that lives in such a beautiful city! — Lori Christ The photos of Paris are exquisite, and make me highly nostalgic...

Thanks! — Nick Breur I stumbled upon your page whilst looking for something else, but Im glad I found it. Reading about you and your life took me out of my own for a few minutes.
