Some symbols of the Normandy Disembark at Utah Beach, in Normandy, France. This is the monument dedicated to the officers and sailors of the United States Navy who enabled the operation Overlord. The flags, the barbwire, the grass of the coast. Then the ruined black and white elaboration to add a personal touch

Someone is walking on the huge beach of Dieppe, one of the several towns on the Normandy Coast. Some sun rays are breaking from the stormy clouds highlighting a little figure on the background, giving the sense of the majesty of the proportions in the scenery.

A cloudy sky over the characteristic buildings in one of the most beautiful squares of Rouen. The variety of the facades of these homes make that the city seems a fantasy place. I liked them so much that I tried to emphasize their fantastic aspect.

The world famous Alabaster Coast as can be admired in Dieppe (FR). A small town on the coast of the Upper Normandy on the British Channel. That day the clouds were really heavy and dramatic, the wind was strong, and the sun was hidden, then this is the second shot I've selected for my archive.

Certain times it happens that I decided to review some older photos with the idea to improve them through the new post processing technique I've learned.This one of the Etretat Cliffs is a typical example, the previous version was apocalyptic and spectacular enough, but the realization was raw with a lot of small particulars I didn't like. This one is the new image, 2016 edition, in a color process I really like more than before and with some small corrections of details I've always noted in the old one. Anyway, this is one of the big arches of the Etretat Cliffs, it is almost the sunset, and the light is turning to red and warm tones. The sunlight is reflected from the sea on the bottom of the clouds, everything gets a blue/purple tone, even the white rocks of the cliffs are colored in pink and the scene assumes a look worthy of a fantasy tale. My luck has lured a lazy seagull flying from a rock to another in search of a place where to pass the night, why not to frame everything in a single dream?
