At the east of Normandy, these chalk cliffs are facing the same cliffs at Dover in England. I understand why the GI's didn't choose this place for D-Day...

Pierre, this is such a grand photo! You got things in there that just make the whole scene come together perfectly. Looking at the largest format, to see the little fence at the top left and then there are even homes up there! (so close to the edge of the cliff!) The sunlight on the water is awesome too. And the lighthouse! Then the seabirds and so beautiful are the clouds! They look almost painted on. They are so perfect! I would love to see more photos of this area if you have any. What a wonderful photo. Thank you so much. Verena

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

I like how each section of the cliffs, is just a little more covered by the fog, the further you go out. That sky is gorgeous and the birds just add to it. Very beautiful image.

That's a great sky back there and all the little details add interest and reveal the scale of the cliffs so well.

Very, very nice, Pierre.

Particularly enjoy the graduated and reflected light on the cliff's fronts/sides mirrored on the water's surface ... as one moves further and deeper into your image here.

Wonderful composition, as always.


And but of course, thank you for sharing your work with us. :o)
