M as in Max

MAX

German car number plates are abbreviations of the cities or regions the car is registered in.  The larger cities have one letter – so M stands for Munich. And this car even has a name!

111 letter M too

In wine growing regions the name of the vinyard is often written in large letters on walls.  This M is part of the name Domberg in the Nahe region.

Ironman

The M in the Ironman logo is very prominent.

111 letter M three

I can’t help seeing an M in this crown or these dancing people.

More Ms or possibly Ns can e found here, linked to Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: letters M or N.

She flies by her own wings

I almost missed this challenge – A Photo a Week Challenge: Things with wings – so I looked at all the entries so far and I won’t even try to compete with all the gorgeous birds, and bees, and butterflies.

And to round it off here is a German car number plate.  I like that sometimes the letters make actual words.  It helps if you live in Wiesbaden (WI) but really sucks for people living in the Börde area (WZL) – formerly Wanzleben (“here there be bugs”).
