A puddle left over from the abundant rain, on the sea wall above the low tide with one of the Sept Îles in the background

Dominque hates posing but this one came out pretty well.

A kind of dreamy shot.

A wide aperture shot with the quai and my subject in focus.

Shot on my iPhone with almost zero manipulation.

Love the light.

The coming storm cancelled classes.

The little “boulangerie” building hosts rotating artists. These guys were quite animated.

A throw away shot that slipped through the winnowing. Not a great shot.

A strong storm with a strong high tide created some great cresting waves.

I positioned myself to get drenched….

That is a piece of the nazi built fortifications by the way….

Dominique just missed a nice splash!

Right in the middle! Seeweed and everything

Too bad the storm didn’t cooperate while I was shooting, I missed great shots with tons of spume but I was too busy socializing!!!

Blaison, lovely small town outside of Angers, we had a great lunch nearby with Tom and Rima. Shot on the iPhone

At the Lebreton family winery in Brissac with Rima and Tom. I bought a lot of wine for the vacation!

What an entrance! Really nice double elephant belle époque building entrance in Angers

What a gorgeous 1920/30’s(?) facade in bas relief

Just dropped to my knee and shot it with the iPhone.

A famous pair of brothers from Rennes by way of Italy, the Freres Odorico did fantastic mosaics still found in Angers. The hotel anjou restaurant Odorico has restored monumental mosaics in the same style as this herbalist storefront, but like an idiot I didnt take any pictures!!!

Me and my flat geometric buildings. Like the one I took in Tokyo.
