Pont de Normandie (deux)

France, Le Havre – September 2008

Yesterday I posted a photo of the Pont de Normandie. Today another one in monochrome showing the ‘hill’ effect and its beautiful shapes.

This week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge #181 is double dipping: send in a photo that is related to another creative challenge on WordPress. This photo is a response to the monthly Thursday special of Lost in Translation. A beautiful blog with great creative photography. Each month one can enter photo’s portraying words: in December 2021 Introspective, Anticipating, Befriending, Choices, Wish.
This photo describes anticipation and choices. If you choose to cross a bridge like this, what will it be like?

Pont de Normandie

France, Le Havre – September 2008

Pont de Normandie is a beautiful bridge over the river Seine between Le Havre and Honfleur. It towers over you as you approach it. The first time I passed it I was in admiration and also in awe.

Don Quichot the French

France, Domfront – July 2013

The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #159 is ‘Postcards’.

In Domfront in Normandy they show old knights and medeaval games to tourists in Summer, in a superb backdrop of the old town. That delivers contrasting images.

Port

France, Barfleur – July 2013

The theme for Lens-artists Weekly Photo Challenge #159 is ‘Postcards’.

The harbor of Barfleur, a small village in the West of Normandy. Years ago I had an idea to sell postcards from photos I was shooting. It never came to reality. This would be a pretty one I think.
