Hello and best wishes to everyone...

Photo 1:

An old-school ad (as my grandpa would say😛) on the streets of Phnom Penh for a tobacco brand... I think I read somewhere that the actor sued the company that made them but didn’t win.

The tower is already there, but not the Arc de Triomphe yet 😛



(smoking kills) 😎...

Photo #2 Machu Picchu, Peru

One of the new seven wonders of the world according to the New Seven Wonders organization.

Photo 2:

Mysore Palace in Karnataka (South India)...

Every Sunday evening around 7 PM, the palace gardens are free to visit to watch the show. Little by little, night falls, and tens of thousands of light bulbs light up for about an hour, sometimes accompanied by the maharaja's brass band. That poor lamppost in the foreground had me amused all by itself in its corner...

And in photo 3:

A little spot for my favorite country 😛...

The Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca and its 200-meter minaret (the Koutoubia in Marrakech isn’t even 80 meters tall for comparison), making it the tallest religious building in the world...

Since this scenario wasn’t covered by the rules, your Arc de Triomphe—uhhh, triumph over the restrictions! 😲😉
