"Obliterate" Your Ticket - Photo 62 - Project 365

Speaking French, one of the things I have to pay particular attention to are 'faux amis' - literally 'false friends.' These are French words that sound like an English word, but don't mean the same thing as the English word in question. In general, their existence just makes me pay more attention to French words and their meanings. And then sometimes you come across a 'fake-English' word used in such a way to be hilarious. This is one of those times. This photo was taken on a bus in St. Malo - "Obliterate Your Tickets Please!"

The Moon Over St Pierre - Photo 61 - Project 365

We took a trip to Caen in Normandy and got this amazing picture from the castle of St Peter's Church at night. I love the effect of the light, on both the church and the moon as it streams through the clouds.
