Photographer’s Note
The Mount Saint Michel was added to the Unesco list of World Heritage Sites in 1979. It was listed with criteria such as cultural, historical, and architectural significance, as well as human-created and natural beauty.
I agree. In fact, I almost suffered a Stendhal's syndrome when I saw it.
I took several pictures during the day and waited until the blue hour to take this one. I had to walk a couple of times foward and back the two kilometres from the city to this mount, and this wiht camera and tripod. But I enjoyed that effort.

Hi Clemente,
I appreciate the blue hour here and the good exposure but I don't like the full-on framing. it is too central and doesn't give enough breathing space to the superb Mont.
Best,
Philippe

Hi Clemente,
Impressive picture with awesome colours but I think there is something wrong with the composition. The foreground is a bit messy and that's what caught my eye first. Not sure if you could have moved a bit to your right, or used the camera vertically.
Best,
Jeremy

Hello Clemente,
A beautiful blue-hour shot with interesting clouds in the sky. I like how all the golden lights on the buildings accentuate the various architectural details. Good POV and composition, they make the mount look truly formidable! Very well done, all your effort and walking were worth it! Have a nice day, Dasha

Hola Clemente,
veo por tu galería que eres un apasionado amante de esta maravilla del Mont Saint Michel, y no me extraña en absoluto.
Esta toma es simplemente espectacular, me gusta mucho la iluminación de esta bella arquitectura rodeada de la marea baja y un cielo precioso. El síndrome de Stendhal sirve para eso, para llegar a no soportar tanta belleza.
Es una foto excelente, con una gran gestión de la exposición y del color.
Un abrazo,
Josep
