I’m not finished with vacation pictures, here comes the Crouesty Harbor in Brittany. During an evening “digestion” walk, eating ice cream, I settled to take some long exposure pictures. If I am not mistaken, the first one was taken over 25 seconds, the second one a bit later over 60 secs.
The tower is the navigation center, the center of the harbor so to say.
Two days after the wedding, when things finally settled down a little and the mass of guests became somehow “graspable” ; we organized a cousins-only grill evening (at the same place as described on the second picture here). After a whole load of sausages, salad, a grilled Camembert and some cake, after talking crap and getting up to date with everyone’s everyday life, we decided to play with my camera in the setting sun.
Here are our newly wed:
Well… who said love make you do strange things? ^^
… and here are we all :]
M&A, gratz again!
Another picture of our summer vacation in France. This was taken on the same evening we walked the “Shore Path” near the Pointe-du-Raz. The weather was gorgeous (the last sunny day actually) but the water was ice cold. It’s only in the evening that some dark clouds showed up… but it did not rain. We set our tent as close from the dunes as it can be in order to protect it from the heavy wind… and we had a peaceful night. The sunset was gorgeous (picture soon to come :]), almost as nice as the “land sailers ballet” during low tide in the morning!
As already stated somewhere in a previous post, we were in Brittany this summer. One of the places I wanted to go to was the “Pointe du raz”, a spike of land looking west a couple miles south from Brest that would be France’s westernmost point if the “Pointe de Corsen”, located a few kilometers north, did not exist. Anyway, accessing the place was a fun long drive on a narrow road. We parked a few kilometers back and walked for a couple hours on the “Sentier des Douaniers” - a walking path following the coastline along the whole French coast – to reach the place.
With such a great weather we had a wonderful line of sight. The Island of Sein that you can see in the back is only visible with such a great weather.
As you can see, Mlle V. is carrying the backpack, that’s why I only took the Lx3 there although the weather was so gorgeous. Why is that? Simply because I had messed up my shoulder pretty bad playing silly on the beach a couple days earlier (did not require any stitches but that was a close call) and could not carry anything on the right shoulder without risking to open the flesh again. So we walked “light” leaving the reflex and its objectives in the car…
Below is the view looking west, you can see La Vieille’s lighthouse and the Sein’s Island.
The view looking north. This view, with a couple boats, clouds geometry, strange cliffs and one lonely fence was nothing less enjoyable!
Definitely worth going there
