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 – 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.

Normandie: Fecamp Lighthouse I

From the mountain to the sea, but one thing remains the same: The chilliness! The weather here in Switzerland wasn't so good that's why I decided to drive to the Normandy. This place is always a visit worth! Here my first shot after a long, long drive. Enjoy the sunset mood.

Normandie: Morning Silence

The fishermen are very busy during the morning hours. They are coming back from fishing and discharge their catch. They are in a hurry because of the tide change. There is no discharge possibility during low tide. But I was focused more at the lighthouse ;-)
