I was born in Montivilliers in Normandy, France. Here are some pictures of this nice little town.
Here is a photo of the Abbey at the heart of the town. I live now in Canterbury a not so different town from Montivilliers.
Greecian calanque or Norman sea?
As you may have read before, I was born in Normandy and there is a very nice place to visit called Etretat. We went there in May and the weather was wonderful.
On these two pictures the colour of the sea clearly show that it was a particularly beautiful day. If I didn't know that I had taken those shots in Normandy I could say they were from Greece or at least the south of France.
Seagulls
As you can see with the deep blue colour of the sky, those two photos have been taken at Etretat on the same spring day as the other photos from there.
The deep blue sky offers a very nice background to the whiteness of the seagulls' feathers.
The world's end - Etretat
When I went to Etretat, we went for a walk on the cliffs and I took the opportunity to take several pictures.
Chalky cliffs
These pictures are of the chalk cliffs in Etretat. On several of them you can see the needle that detach from the cliff.
On this first photo, the boats and people on the left hand side counterbalances the cliff. The way people lazily leaned on the boats give this scene a tranquil atmosphere. The tint also suggests an old postcard.
