It makes me nervous just looking at it... *is afraid of heights*

Great that you got that seagull in there. It seems like the land just decided to cut off and disappear.

Yes, the Normandy coasts were a great experience. I wish we could have explored them even longer. But these five days were a good start.

You are completely right about the light. But we were taking just one day-trip along that bit of the coast with no chance of coming back at a better time. So it was a matter of take it or leave it.

Great you like this shot neverthess! Many thanks for telling it.

It was lovely. Now fortunately. But it was not when the invasion took place here in June 1944, I am afraid.
