Description Cancale, France

"There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Buisness men they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None would ever compromise
Nobody of this world

No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I we've been through that
And this is not our place
So let us stop talking falsely now
The hour's getting late

All along the watchtower
Princess kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too
Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl"

by Bob Dylan





comments, favs and certainly critiques are more than just welcome!

Such a strong photowork! I love the composition and the perspective which make the tower to stand out. The sky is fantastic as well. Great the B&W option and quality, it adds a dramatic mood.

I lived in lighthouses until the age of 18, so this one really speaks to me.
Sky, rock a grass. Dense. I can almost smell the breath of sea air.

I see subtle hints that point to your style of shooting from nearly a year ago, and I'm glad to be honest.
There is a certain objectivity that only you seem to be able to apply to a scene, it must be the semblance of style.

Ich mag das Motiv unheimlich gerne und auch die Perspektive ist grandios, der erste Blick wird sofort auf die Spitze des Leuchtturms gezogen, dennoch wirkt es auf mich etwas anstrengend das Photo anzusehen. Ich kann nicht genau fest machen was es ist, vielleicht fehlt einwenig der Kontrast vom GebΓ€ude zum Himmel?

Dennoch ein großartiges Photo.

Frohes Fest!

LG, Lilith

So... Did that used to be a fortress of some sort, or just a castle-like architectural style going on there?

And in agreement with a previous commenter, I'd love to see a version this with a slow shutter speed as well. Keep the lighting though, it's perfect!
