Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
La première est folle!! Ca me fait penser à Coco avant Chanel, pourquoi ? je sais pas, mais j'adore. Ca a un côté aristocrato-romantique...

Wow its great!! Love the houses and the beach specially the combination of those! Looks so good that I just want to be there for a moment. Thanks to you I can be there ...on distance...but I can see it and almost feeling it! Thanks for sharing!

This beach is so beautiful, especially the buildings on the foreshore, I can hardly believe they are real. They are real, aren't they, Elisabelle? Did you stay in one of them?

What can I say! Lovely pictures! ( I have a "new" flash for my camera. (New = a couple years old) I've used it only few times. Sometimes trying new things and equipment just takes a little more time... ;)

What gorgeous scenery Elisabelle!
Something tells me you and your
new lens will be taking many strolls
making wonderful photos together.

Oooh, I'm liking your new lens. All of the photos have a dreamy quality about them, but I especially like the first and the second from the last.

Have fun with your lens!

I love Normandie, wants to go back all the time. The beaches are fascinating! Me and my friend Bente were interrailing there many years ago, we had so little money left that we ate bread and cheese for a week.

One expects the most fascinating characters to step out of those houses. Beautiful!
