Landscape Brittany's Lighthouses

Brittany's Lighthouses · **14 Likes**

Brittany's coasts are an amazing mix of natural beauty and man-made intervention, famously in the shape of lighthouses. I selected here three of them for you:

Phare du Petit Minou at sunrise, 1 second exposure with Hasselblad X1D II, Hasselblad XCD 21mm & Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

Phare de Men Ruz at sunrise, 181 seconds exposure with Hasselblad X1D II, Hasselblad XCD 45mm & Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

Sunset storm at Phare de Pontusval, 6.3 second exposure with Hasselblad X1D II, Hasselblad XCD 30mm & Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

Thank you for viewing, best regards

These should go in a published album.

Excellent as always. You have a photo style that is your own.

I don't see "the little cat" (le petit minou) ... lol ! Europe is not just huge urban areas. Magnificent images, my friend !

VB -these images are superb. I know how you did the bottom two, and they are excellent. But what's the story with the clouds in the top image - they seem to have time-lapse motion, but the sea is captured differently. What's your secret?

**Sailor** · 08-13-2020, 11:56 AM

I always look forward to your postings, Vieri. As always, these three are gems.

I thought it'd make sense if I'd post images grouped by themes, rather than one by one... Thank you very much for your comment, I am glad you enjoyed this set as well!

Thank you very much Richard, glad you enjoyed them!

Yes, Europe is full of incredible natural areas, if one goes and look for them!

About your question, it's just the way the clouds looked with a 1 second exposure - no secret tricks, besides deciding to photograph them on a day they looked like this

Vieri, beautiful images.
There is a lighthouse thread on the Forum. It would be great if you added these to it.

Thank you very much indeed Susan, I am glad you enjoyed them!

I love them all, and as you said they are all different, but that sky in nr. 2 was something else!
