Country Driveway - Photo 70 - Project 365

Still in the Land of the Celts (Brittany, France), I came across this beautiful country driveway. I think it caught my eye because even though there was no snow and the green leaves were gone, the scene was still beautiful.

Celtic Cross - Photo 69 - Project 365

Touring after Christmas, we traveled to the land of the Celts in Brittany, France. I found this stone cross on the top of a fence. The cross, the vines, and the stone seems to fit the image of the Celts in my mind too well to pass it by.

Candle Light - Photo 68 - Project 365

Just after Christmas, I went exploring in northern France. One of my many stops was the iconic cathedral in Chartres, a little out of Paris. Candles are lit by many of the patrons and pilgrims, as a sort of prayer, as I understand it. But the light of the candles in the dark cathedral made for a beautiful picture.

Lego Christmas Tree - Photo 67 - Project 365

LEGO is one of those things that bring back wondrous memories of childhood. But LEGO is something that didn't leave its wonder behind when I left childhood. So when my Honey got me a LEGO advent calendar for Christmas, I was delighted. This ended up being our Christmas tree in Paris!

Snow at the Train Station - Photo 66 - Project 365

Well the snow kept coming. This day we were in Rouen, waiting for the train, as the snow fell softly in the train station. Setting the exposure just right, I could freeze the snow mid-flight!
