Les moutons du mont, a photo from Basse-Normandie, North

Photographer's Note

La viande d'agneau de pr閟 sal閟 est un produit agricole d'閘evage ovin fran鏰is. La particularit� de cette viande est d'阾re obtenue par l'exploitation herbag鑢e de pr閟 sal閟 gr鈉e � la conduite pastorale de troupeaux de moutons. La v間閠ation halophyte constituant ces p鈚urages transmet � la chair de l抋gneau une saveur originale.

Hello Serge,
Very tasty these salt meadow lambs and they are an integral part of the scene in the countryside close to Mont Saint Michel. Excellent capture with the village seemingly rising from the ground as if by magic. Very good technical realisation.

Hi Serge
A unique view of this iconic place, the sheep adds a nice touch of humour to the view. The field leading to the chateau creates beautiful depth too and toy for a great combination of colours. Nicely done
Best wishes
Noel

Fabulous picture over the iconic cathedral of Mont-Saint-Michel, Serge.
Perfect light upon, marvelous contour-lines and contrast from blue sky and green pasture.
The sheep are a nice bonus to the scene.
Bon-dimanche,
Ike

Hello Serge, a classic scene with the sheep in the fg and the famous Mont St. Michel as a splendid backdrop.
Excellent depth of field.
I notice that this was taken 12 years ago,I guess that nothing has changed, and it still looks the same today.
Regards Jean.

Bonjour Serge,
this is a very delightful postcard, it has an imposing and very fascinating background as well as a cute foreground. I appreciate very much the excellent sharpness on the iconic Mont Saint Michel and the pleasant complementary role of the field, the sheep amd the clouds. I also like the effect of the side light and the colours. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great Sunday,
Ourania

Hello Serge,
I like this way of capturing the famous hill. The green foreground and the grazing sheep create a very pleasant ambience and give the spectacular hill tough competition for attention. The sharpness is good all over the photo and the colours are fine and natural.
Kind regards,
Gert

Salut Serge,
Le Mont est un sujet si photog閚ique qu'on le voit toujours avec plaisir, belle composition avec cette belle luminosit� qui le valorise, bien cette composition avec les moutons en avant-plan, on aurait envie de voir le mouton du centre un peu d閏al� sur la gauche ou la droite, quelques pas et ce sera parfait pour l'閝uilibre de la photo

Dear Serge,

Very spectacular composition with the sheep in the foreground, creating a counter-part with monumental building.

Best Wishes,
Gy.

carlo62 (81265) 2016-08-14 13:04

Ciao Serge
un luogo molto conosciuto e molto fotografato, la presenza di queste pecore � essenziale per dare una lettura pi� originale alla foto, considerando anche che di solito intorno al Mont c'� il mare e non i prati verdi.
Saluti
Carlo

Hello Serge, The classic view of Mount Saint Michel but with this sheep grazing very nice. And you avoided here disturbing elements like cars, tourists and so on. You found superb viewpoint. Fabulous view.

Bonjour Serge,
What a beautiful view of this famous place in France. The island and the abbey on top of it look so sharp here and are lit by such a pleasant sunlight. Excellent composition with a great inclusion of the sheep in the foreground.

Ciao dear Serge

What a stunning scene. Le Mont Saint Michel is one of my favourite architectural icons. You have captured it superbly. Wonderful light and colours. The sheep has been placed beautifully within the frame.

Warmest wishes
Lisa

Bonjour Serge,

La pr閟ence des moutons anime la sc鑞e. La prise de vue permet de voir les d閠ails du Mont Saint-Michel. La qualit� de la lumi鑢e embellit les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journ閑.

Salut Serge.
Magnifique photo de cette ic鬾e des monuments fran鏰is, l'abbaye est beau en haut de la colline, entour� de belles maisons, on voit des moutons de p鈚urage dans le premier plan, donner une touche bucolique.
Un magnifique color� qui donne l'image beaucoup de richesse chromatique.
Tr鑣 bonne gestion de l'閏lairage et de tr鑣 bonne nettet�.
Bien fait. J'aime.
Je vous souhaite une bonne semaine.
Avec nos meilleures salutations.
Luis.

Bonsoir Serge,
one of the most iconic views from France! I would like to visit it someday. I like very much your choice of the foreground. These animals add so much life and warmth to the scene.
Perfect postcard-like presentation, I love it!

macjake (98456) 2016-08-16 19:05

Hi Serge
this is certainly one of those classic subjects that most photographers want to have in their own personal galleries, me included.

the Castle in the bg is incredibly sharp and so focused, I wish my shots had that sharpness and crispness to them :)
wonderful view, wouldn't change anything here.
cheers
Craig

Bonjour Serge,

You have many newer photographs but I like best this iconic scene with sheep in the foreground, a veritable classic. Unfortunately, I have never visited Mont Saint Michel but hope very much to see this scene in person. Perfect!

Warm regards,

Bulent
