At dawn in Le Tréport and around

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

I woke-up very early on Saturday in order to be on the North sea for dawn. 4:30 AM,
everybody was sleeping soundly even the cat.
I drove 3 hours on deserted motorways and drank a first coffee in Mers-les-Bains in a
small café just in front of the St Gobain plant. The tour started in the middle of Mers-les-Bains,
then Le Tréport's harbour with a very nice light. Weather was very windy and I had some
difficulties to keep in place for shooting specially on the beach. At 9:30 AM, I started
to move to the North all along the coast to Cayeux-sur-Mer very well known for it's pebbles
beaches. The tour stopped around 1h00 PM on the southern border of Somme river's bay.
It was time to remove salt from the UV filter and come back home to join family.
The pictures are displayed in the same order they've been made. Hope you'll enjoy
that fantastic french region as much as I do each time I'm there. Marc.

Très belle gallerie. Il fallait effectivement savoir se lever pour capter ces lumières là. Les couleurs sont très fortes et profondes, tu joues avec les limites de la saturation. Quel résultat! Le Bas-Normand que je suis aprécie ces photos de Haute-Normandie. BV

Marc What a spectacular and beautiful gallery. So many great photographs. Astounding work, many of your compostions remind me of some of the best impressionist painter's compositions, the angles, the contrasts and color. Great gallery. Barri

mes préférées : la mercédès, l'écluse, la plage caillouteuse au ras du sol... une ou deux façades ensoleillées sont magnifiques aussi .. enfin ta virée matinale pour attraper cette lumière est digne d'un vrai passionné :) donc , bravo !

Une belle région, en effet. Des images toujours aussi chaudes et surtout matinales, comme tu as l'air d'aimer. On voit des images sous des couleurs différentes. Bien joué, et merci d'avoir partagé cette expérience avec nous. Jim.
