Passing by Normandy - 5 and last
2

Another lighthouse from the area (Cotentin), not far from the previous lighthouse (about 15 Km). Rebuilt in 1947 (previous one dated 1854-58).

"Cap Lévi" lighthouse

A closer view shows the architecture better (and not a pure blue sky as you can see )

We wanted to see the smallest protected harbour of France, so going west to Saint-Germain-des-Vaux, "Port Racine" does  not look like a harbour for big yachts (800 m²) .

And we could not leave the travel without a look at the place were we had our rent, "Saint Vaast-La-Hougue" with a view on an oyster farming (those oysters are excellent by the way) with workers. (Again some clouds in the sky !  )

All shots with Dynax 7D & minolta 24-85, all the best, Michel.

Interesting. A lighthouse with concave walls, and cables across the harbour. Never seen before.

I enjoyed #2. Like the composition and color.  May your 7D never go silent.
