Today I have two dramatic and colorful shots that I am sure you will ALL enjoy!
“Hi Steve.
My name is Kaïs.
II’m a graphic operator for TV in France (and worldwide too 
)
I’ve been reading your great website for months now and I finally made the decision to send you some of my pics.
Back in june 2009, I knew nothing in photography (when I say nothing, ISO was a manga name for me !)
Then, I decided to start to shoot for real. I baught Canon 5D MKII and a 24-70 L and a 70-200 L 2.8.
Then, a friend lent me a M8 (it was the first time I held a Leica !) for some shots. I wasn’t that conviced.
Then, I finally sold the 5D MKII and baught a Nikon D3x and a wonderful Panasonic GF1 that I always carry with me.
And some pics of my vacation in Britany (West of France).
I hope you’ll enjoy the pics and maybe post it.
Anyways, keep up your excellent work for all photography amateurs that we are.
Bravo Steve !
Kaïs.”

Hey !!! Thanks a lot for posting my pics Steve !
I’m going to Casablanca soon, I hope I can take some nice pictures of this beautiful country.
Ive been to that castle, pretty beautiful place and a much better image of it then ive seen before.
I like the pic of the castle better. Looks like a great place to visit! Maybe one day … maybe I can fund a trip to France by selling the M9 …
Which camera systems were used to take these pictures?
These pics where shot with my D3x (Nikkor 24-70/2.8) and processed with LR 2.0.
The church (not a castle) looks like a HDR pic but it’s not. It’s a single pic tweaked.
Take care on your trip!

Is that really Mont Saint Michel? I guess I never saw photos of it from this perspective. Always see photos from much farther away and with the tides up. Thanks for sharing the photos with us!
Wonderful atmospheric shot of Mont St Michel I’ve never seen it look so moody. I have to say though that I love the shot of the stone head on the beach, it looks like Punch carved form stone, the picture has a wonderful depth of field, really outstanding.
Armanius, this pic was shot as I arrived at the place, at 6.00 PM, it was very cloudy that day.
I also got some W&B pics of the Mont that I’ll post as soon as I go home.
Many thanks for your positive comments guys !
Here’s another point of vue of the Mont.
Too big ! Sorry guys.
Here’s the right one.
