France – Chamonix – Full Moon Night at Lac de Chesery
To be exact, it was a 90% full moon night
Nevertheless, spending a night at Lac de Chesery is always an amazing experience. The breathtaking scenery of illuminated mountains (Dome du Gouter, Mont Blanc, Aiguille du Midi, Mont Maudit, Grandes Jorasses, Aiguille de Triolet..) by the full moon and the amazing reflection at Lac de Chesery is every effort worth. I didn't used a tent (only sleeping bag) because the night was mild and the sky was bright with stars. I counted seven falling stars, placed one wish and fell asleep....
Enjoy the Mont-Blanc scenery.
Regards,
Gerry

France – Provence – Post Sunset Glow at Oyster Pier
Normally I prefer the black&white interpretation of the Oyster scenery. But this time I couldn't resist to post the sleeping Oyster pier in color. Enjoy the post sunset glow.

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