Key quays...

When I went to Switzerland, we visited several lakes. These photos are my favorites from this trip. I'll let you judge for yourself whether you find them interesting as well.

This quay offers a nice barrier between the water and the sky which share the same tint. It also enables us to skim through the photo from left to right. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing.

Some Swiss landscapes

In Switzerland the landscapes are amazing, the lakes, the mountains... there are many things to see and obviously many things to photograph.

Here are a few examples of my favorites landscapes I took when I went over there.

This photo is a photo of Lake Geneva and its houses and forests. I chose to take it in black and white for obvious reasons and added grain to make the shot more dramatic. It's one of my favorites.

Boules players on the seaside

As I said before, taking photos of people is a difficult task. With this shot, I succeeded to surreptitiously photograph these boules players in the middle of a throw. It creates a dynamic shot.

 

Sunsets over the Channel

I went to Barneville-Cartert a little port town in La Manche in France. As you may have seen on this blog, I particularly like taking photos of the seaside. I find that it creates both dynamic and poetic shots whichever the weather.

I chose to show you these several photos of sunsets as they offer different sets of colour.

On this first shot, the sky has a nice pink tint that's being reflected on the withdrawing tide. The sea is a nice purplish colour which perfectly associates with the colour of the sky. I find this photo quite harmonious. 

Beach huts at Barneville

Here are two black and white shots of beach huts on the Barneville-Cartert waterfront. 

On the first shot, the huts follow nicely the shape of the hill which reinforce the curve created by the format of the photo.
