Description

Le Mont Saint Michel is a monastery built on a rocky island with only 830m circumference, on the north coast of France.  The construction of the monastery began as early as 1017, but was completed only around 1520.  It is still used today, but it is also one of the most important and beautiful landmarks of northern France.  When I saw a picture of it for the first time many years ago, I knew that I absolutely had to go there. So I was then with a friend on a road trip in northern France, and have of course also made a stop there.  I took this picture on the morning of my first visit.   I saw already many pictures of this place, thats why I wanted to create something special. I had the idea to shoot it from the sandbanks which are only visible during low tides. To reach it we first had to walk in the dark over the soaked shore areas. The tides were just receding and left small pools and parts with quicksand everywhere. It was really not easy to get there and we got stuck in the sand a few times. But when we reached our destination we were simply overwhelmed. It was one of these magical moments.   The light mist over the water in combination with the first light of the rising sun was just beautiful. These are the moments for which a landscape photographer lives.  And thats why I minted this picture as an edition. I want to share this wonderful morning with all of you.
