OCOLOY Day 57: Auray - St. Goustan

This is a follow-on to yesterday's image and shows the view looking from the old port, down river towards the sea. These are the pleasure craft that overwinter in the port but in a just a few weeks time their numbers will be swelled by the summer visitors. The road bridge carries the Nantes- Brest motorway.

This image is SOOC and is part of my ongoing OCOLOY project - you can read more about it in my post for 1 January and in my profile. I'm also tagging this for B&W February

Love seeing your settings! I live in boat filled area, but nothing like this. Detail filled, plus those great reflections.

Love the road ridge framing more boats beyond. With BoB is best.

@365projectorgsebgritt Thanks Sebastian, although you can thank Fuji San for the processing as this image is sooc!

[Richard Sayer]

@pasttheirprime Thanks Kev - I'm actually about 8" above the water! If you look further along the bank, just beneath the building, you can faintly see some handrails which belong to steps leading down to the water - I'm on the bottom step of a similar set of steps.

[Kathy]

Nice shot of the sailboats on the river.

Sorry Richard, I shouldn't joke when your below par but I'd noticed the SOOC, before so there was a certain degree of humerous sarcasm in my comment! 😇 ;).
