France – Bretagne – Ile d’Ouessant – The Gardien III

Bretagne_P8_2334-Gerry_Pacher

A high-key long shutter composition (around 120 sec) of one of the many lighthouses at Ile d'Ouessant. The various shades were created by the heavy tide change and its streaming.

France – Bretagne – Île d’Ouessant – Phare du Créac’h

Bretagne_P8_2432-Gerry_Pacher-v2

Ile d'Ouessant is an island located at the west of Brittany and measures around 5km x 8km. It can be reached by ferry or airplane (Cessna sized). The rough shoreline and the huge lighthouse is really breath taking.

Enjoy a 128 sec view ;-)

France – Bretagne – Floating Thoughts

Bretagne_P8_2423-Gerry_Pacher

I was waiting for a gorgeous sunset .... but it shouldn't be the case. The sun was setting down without any spectacular colors .... and my thoughts floated away...... to Heli.

Suddenly, back to reality, I saw this rock in a perfect back light position.... and I had the pleasure to push the shutter for about 124 seconds.

France – Bretagne – Lighthouse of le Conquet

Bretagne_P8_1934-Edit-Gerry_Pacher

The lighthouse of le conquet is one of the many that dot the shore of the rough coast of Brittany.

I captured this photograph round about 30 min after sunset and opened the shutter for about 32 seconds to get the smooth surface of the sea.

Bretagne – 20 sec inner Peace

Bretagne_P8_1869-Gerry_Pacher-v2

This fisher was moving around and never stopped longer than 2 sec at one place. But after a while he found his inner peace for about 20 seconds. Enough for my long exposure ;-)


Enjoy it.
