Photographer’s Note
ENGLISH: This was a cloudy and foggy morning, but decided to get some photo practice done and went to Biarritz. This picture was taken on a bridge that leads to the "Rocher de la Vierge", which you can see in the background. I really wanted only one person on the bridge, and I got lucky; the nasty weather and early sunday morning hour didn't attract too many people. I regret I didn't use a smaller aperture to get a little more DOF. I retouched the picture with photoshop a little, and got a better contrast and less fog.
FRENCH: C'etait un matin nuageux et avec du brouillard, mais je decidais quand meme de m'entrainer un peu avec mon Canon; j'ai donc ete a Biarritz. Cette photo a ete prise sur le pont qui mene au "Rocher de la Vierge", que l'on apercoit au fond. Je voulais seulement une persone sur le pont et j'ai eu de la chance grace au mauvais temps et etre venu tot un dimanche matin. Je regrette de ne pas avoir utilise une ouverture un peu plus petite pour avoir legerement plus de nettete en arriere plan. J'ai retouche la photo avec photoshop pour avoir un meilleur contrast et perdre un peu de brouillard.

Hi Simon,

I really appreciate the perspective and the loneliness of the set, plus the B&W choice, only the background is too undefined.
regards, Alex
