Ploumanac'h Blockfields, a photo from Bretagne, West

Photographer's Note

Back to Ploumanac'h pink granite blockfields in Côtes d'Armor, Brittany. My previous shots were token at sunset, this one was token in late morning. And the sun shone as it probably never did since that day in Brittany !

I used a ultra wide angle lens (10-20mm) and chose to include parts of blockfields in the frame to try to transcribe the feelings you have in the middle of these incredible geological formations. I also used a polarizing filter to make the clouds more visible (although I know the sky has not a very uniform colors when using a polarizing filter on ultra wide lens). Beauty of Brittany did everything else !

Bonjour Olivier,

Voici un endroit magnifique que j'ai bien envie d'aller découvrir un de ces jours... Mais avec un temps correct comme tu as eu !
La composition est bonne, ces rochers donnant vraimenyt l'impression d'être dans un dédale.

Bonjour Olivier,

A strong shot, filled with hard, rough textures and beautifully composed so that the eyes have a natural lead from the f/g boulders to the tall tower.
The polariser has wrked well to give a fine density to the blue of the sky.

Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)
