About This Image

This is an image that almost never was –

Though I’d wanted it it seemed forever. Well. Something like it. Something pristine, from Paris. Iconic.

It seemed the perfect Paris plan: take a leisurely tour bus of the City of Light at night!

My wife and I boarded the bus at a little gift shop along the Seine near last light. I wasn’t even savvy enough, sensitized enough yet to grasp the sunset opportunity. That wouldn’t come for a few more years, back in Vermont for a summer visit. No. I wanted night pictures, with the Eiffel Tower alive with the holidays! Thanksgiving had passed, and we were staying another few weeks in Paris. A detour, I joked to everyone, enroute back to Texas! We’d lived in Sheila’s home state for a year and a half, for me, so I could experience fall colors and cooler drier air. So I could experience my wife’s home state very close to where she grew up and went to college. And now we were moving back to Texas. The now 6 year old youngest grandchild (who insists he’s 6 1/2) was also enroute 😊

Christmas lights were already appearing like fireflies on parade.

Avenues and boulevards glimmered into the growing dusk and then danced into the night.

I knew I would see the Eiffel Tower like I couldn’t any other time….

But I hadn’t counted on the bus stopping so briefly, not being able to get off for a few minutes as it posed regally toward the stars, huge search beams circling the city. A symbolic vigilance, I hoped. Yet, like so many moments in the city – arches, cobbled alleys, lovers in corners of barely recessed doorways along the sidewalks – real reminders of a not-that-distant past of crushing occupation. It’s spoken about silently in the museums, in glances through plate glass windows of small cafes. Freedom is fragile. It’s worth fighting for. It’s knowing when it’s worth fighting for that’s tough. You can’t afford it get it wrong, and lose before you even start.

And that’s how I felt shooting picture after picture as the tour bus rolled to a brief stop, then continued on. Previewing the images on my camera, and seeing splotches and sprinkles of colors mix incoherently with errant reflections that obviously had lost their way, I felt I’d lost the battle before I’d even started, and just hadn’t known it.

But I was wrong. Luckily 😊

An old friend my wife and I have known since Galveston – which was before we’d moved to Austin, which was before we’d retired and pretended to live in Vermont then drifted to Paris in a detour back to Austin – an old friend so far back her daughter was our youngest girl’s best friend in elementary school, the same youngest girl of ours who is now the momma to the 6 year old grandson spending the night with us tonight 😊 and she said, this old friend of ours since Galveston, one night a few years after we’d returned from Paris and I was telling her how disappointed I’d been about the number and quality of pictures I’d gotten in Paris, she said, “Oh, those. Those are my favorite ones.”

And she smiled that slow gentle smile she gets sometimes.

Then told me how much fun they gave her. The lights, the colors, the festiveness of it all.

And I began to change the way I looked at my pictures 💕
