Beautiful series shot in marvellous light.

Wish I had tken many of them -at least I'd have been on vacation too ;-)

Just one remark about the lens(es) used: some photos display a lot of distortion -as seen by my poor eyes. Have you played with the software correction a lot? Or are they as they as is and therefore might benefit from some editing.


Nice holidays and job in any case.

Julia and I had a 10-day trip to Brittany from which we returned last Sunday. The weather was cool, but sunny with only a couple of days of rain, sporadic and that. It was a great break and refreshed our love of France and of Brittany in particular.

We took the ferry from Portsmouth, on the south coast, to St Malo; we stayed for 3 nights in hotels and 7 in a cottage followed by a last night in a hotel in Dinan. I can recommend this part of the world for a visit; we had excellent food and wine and the scenery is delightful. It’s called the Pink Granite Coast and we recognised the same granite from our holiday in Sardinia about 10 years ago.

Here’s an example of the granite: http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-bzpxsLK/A <http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-bzpxsLK/A>

And another view of the same “phare”:

Another coastline, but at sunrise: http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-x4Sp8NH/A <http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-x4Sp8NH/A>

Anticipating a Lannionaise lunch: http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-BKWB87L/A <http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-BKWB87L/A> (we had andouille (chitterlings) for the first time; they’re pretty gamey . . .)

Oyster beds which looked like a D-Day fleet in the distance: http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-V8xfC98/A <http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-V8xfC98/A>

Finally, an unexpected statued of Alfred Hitchcock at Dinard: http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-gD83dz5/A <http://www.images.threeshoes.biz/Travel/Brittany/i-gD83dz5/A>

I’m happy to receive criticism etc . . .

Chris
