La Gardienne


I don't know the story behind the lady who's
guarding this doorway in the 12th arrondissement
(if there even is one), but she has a nice face . . . 
 

and she's found a good way to guard
herself from the
 ever-present pigeons
(seems to be working pretty well).

Saint-Antoine-des-Quinze-Vingts


This is very much a "local" church, catering
to its parishioners in the 12th arrondissement.
However, it does have two beautiful organs; the main
one, built by Cavaillé-Coll, is considered one of the
best examples of symphonic organs in Paris—and some
powerful music has been recorded in this church.
