Le Mont Saint-Michel Photo

Photographer’s Note

Winding street - another shot from Le Mont Saint-Michel. The picture is a little dark because the weather was really awfull, so cloudy and was raining every few minutes.
Le Mont Saint-Michel is a rocky tidal island in Normandy, France. It's located approximately one kilometer off the country's north coast, at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches.
On the island has been located Norman Benedictine Abbey of St Michel surrounded by the winding streets and convoluted architecture of the medieval town.
In 1979 the Mont-Saint-Michel and its bay were added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites (because of cultural, historical, architectural significance, as well as human-created and natural beauty).

I like the liveliness of the street actually this type of photography is one of the hardest among all because you are very closer towards people while taking the photo and this makes it harder to keep the eyes focus on the street under these conditions you ve done well.

dear Jolanta,
you captured the air of this street very well!
many people and shops in the narrow street...
I like colorful panels those make joyful perspective.
thank you,
Akihisa

Podobaja mi sie takie ciasne uliczki gdzie okna i sprzedawcy sa od siebie na wyciagniecie reki. Sporo takich miast na Zachodzie ze stara zabudowa i architektura. Fajny pokaz, wszystko tu tetni zyciem.

Czesc Jola,
ciekawa scenka uliczna.
Uliczka zreszta bardzo urokliwa, fajnie ze masz pare napisow po francusku -to dodaje zawsze egzotyki zdjeciu.

Eh by³em tam.... matko, ju¿ z 12 wiosen bêdzie. Wyj±tkowe miejsce. Uwielbiam klimat ¶redniowiecznych uliczek - tu co prawda mocno skomercjalizowany, ale nadal niepowtarzalny.

Weso³ych ¶wi±t ¿yczê :)

Pozdr.
Piotrek
