Album 21 "Clouds in August" Lumières d'Opale

Hello,

This is information about my website, but not a spam.

I have soon introduced to you my website.

This site presents pictures about French "Côte d'Opale", near Le
Touquet, where light is ever unsettled. Pictures are renewed 2 times a
month. Downloading and use are free if it is without lucrative
intention.

Photo album number 21 has been just published. Thanks to 225 visitors
of album number 20.

It is named "Clouds in August"

If you are interested, visit my website:
* lumieresdopale . fr .monsite.orange . fr /index.jhtml or

* lumieresdopale . fr .monsite.orange . fr

If you want to tell your opinion or to be personally informed about
new publication, write to lumieresdopale@orange . fr .

I remind you that I am an amateur photographer, who likes French "Côte
d'Opale" and its light on the sea and on the sand of its extensive
beaches. I am living and working in Paris, and spend my holydays in
Merlimont ("Pas-de-Calais"). I use a digital still camera "Sony Cyber-
shot DSC-V1" bought in November 2003.

My website is, for me, an opportunity to progress and to share my
interest for photography and French "Côte d'Opale" with its visitors.
It is also the easiest way, and which less spends time, to collect
your observations and advices. It is without any lucrative
intention.

Congratulations.

Daniel

Région que j'adore et que je fréquente depuis plus de vingt ans, mais...

Présentation rustique, images trop petites et d'une qualité technique
vraiment naze (gradués à forte pixelisation), énormes gaffes dans la
composition (lampadaires aux coins de l'image etc.) et puis la date
incrustée dans les photos. Désolé, mais c'est complètement raté.

Awfull presentation, pictures too small, miserable technical quality,
terrible composition, and the date in the pictures is an absolute no-no.

> I remind you that I am an amateur photographer

Un amateur c'est quelqu'un qui aime. Ça ne se voit vraiment pas, ici.

An amateur is someone who loves what he does. It doesn't show here.

Sorry.

Ralf

Hi Ralf,

You have a very nice collection of industrial 'landscapes'. Is there any
type of restriction photographing industrial site in Europe. I'm asking
because once I was traveling on autobahn A4 near Eschweiler, there is a
nuclear plan on the north side and wind turbines on the south side. Here in
Québec we use hydroelectricity, so I stopped and took pictures without
thinking at the time that in foreign country they may have different rules.

I would not try it in the United States. I've been often to Cuba, but I
rather avoid Guantánamo.

Things vary a great deal across Europe. I've had friends get into
trouble for taking pictures of a steel mill in Poland.

In Western Europe - with the obvious exception of the UK where they're
getting all paranoid - you're usually on the safe side if you're not
trespassing. Everything visible from public premises and roadways can be
photographed as long as you're not caught standing on a ladder and
aiming at someone's bedroom window.

There are no nuclear plants in this area. These are conventional coal
fired power stations burning the lignite that they mine in enormous
open-cast operations, destroying historic monuments, churches, and whole
villages on the way. By far the worst ecological crime in this country.

Here's a photo I've taken of this plant and the associated mine a few
years ago:

I've stopped visiting England for the same reason.

Indeed, not a pretty sight. Which is why I get annoyed when some
residents of the former West Germany adopt a "holier than thou"
attitude to the former GDR.

Thank you for the information, I will take more pictures next time.

I though coal would only be used in Eastern Europe. We have none here, 96%
comes from hydroelectric facilities.
