Every January, the village authorities publish a kind of annual report to inform residents of progress made on different projects over the past year and plans for the coming year.
This year's report features two of my photos. One is on the cover (left). Both of them have appeared on this blog in past months.
This isn't the first time village officials have asked us for permission to use our photos. They had some of Walt's printed and framed a few years ago to put up in a new vacation rental apartment they were decorating in the village château.

The other photo of mine appears on the report's contents page along with the mayor's greetings. As you might know, the mayor is one of our neighbors.
Some other photos of mine and Walt's are included in a smaller format on a kind of gallery page at the end of the report.

It's an honor and a pleasure to be recognized this way and to be of service to village projects, of course. We participate strictly on a volunteer basis.
They certainly can't go wrong using the photos you guys take. I have yet to see one I didn't like.
ReplyDeleteWith the talent, skill, and eye you both possess, it's a well-deserved honor!
ReplyDeleteyay! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's a well deserved honor and pleasure. The cover is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteDitto what everyone said!
ReplyDeleteThat is very nice! I like your mayor's new year's wishes too.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations/Félicitations
ReplyDeleteGood to see your names listed in the photo credits. The two photos are beautiful and a nice way to give back to your village and helpful mayor.
ReplyDeleteexcellent
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely well deserved honor. We are curious about the rental in the chateau. Would you be able to send me a website for that? Getting that yearning for France again.....sigh
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Thanks for showing us the report.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. Do I detect a pointed note (given current events) in the mayor's reference to all the different sorts of family?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the good comments, everybody.
ReplyDeletePatrick, that last sentence in Annick's greeting is more than slightly defective, grammatically speaking -- a real run-on. I wish she had stuck in a 'non-traditionnelle' after the 'traditionnelle' in her list of adjectives describing the 'famille'.
Hi Susan, try this link.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, Ken.
ReplyDeleteI appreciated the mayor's comments. She sounds like a thoughtful, effective mayor.
