La Belle Province's photostream
|
I live in Montreal, a city as decadent as an overripe peach. In case you've never been here, it's irrational, dirty, big-hearted and bleeding-edge new, with crumbling infrastructure, full of loud talkers speaking every language, good beer, chocolate, poutine, bagels and gelato, and women walking with linked arms, where everybody smokes, stays up late, has at least one little dog, and kisses you on both cheeks.
Me, I'm open to life, adventurous, natural, intuitive, spontaneous...yep, all that stuff. I like weekend and world travel. I want to go new places literally and figuratively. Being outside our comfort zone makes us look at the world and ourselves with new eyes.

"La Belle. She has almost a magical quality about her, she sparkles like a diamond, yet no diamond could match the value of her friendship. I find her photographs at times wistful, other times hilarious, entertaining, but never boring. Never. Her comments are some of the most treasured in my photostream, and often some of the most humorous. Flickr has allowed me to meet some wonderful people, and she's high on the list of my favorites."

"Belle has a generous spirit and warmth that shines from her personality. These are also traits that are revealed through her striking images of heart-felt photography. She continues to share with the world, her creative and talented perception of life, love, travel and her gorgeous cats with her well-loved Nikon camera. Belle is a true inspiration to us all; the way she communicates life through her images. Thank you Belle! You inspire me :)"
