Saint-Valery-en-Caux is located on the Alabaster Coast in Normandy. There is a small, sheltered harbour that still accommodates fishing boats.
At the harbour entrance stands a small, very photogenic lighthouse, which was built as early as 1872 and therefore already looks very picturesque due to its structural shape.
This picture was taken as an extreme long exposure. This almost completely dissolves the structures in the water and thus the water and the sky, which was completely cloudless, blend into each other. This leads to the fact that the attention is only drawn to a few elements in the picture.
The two boundaries of the fairway provide a colourful and compositional counterpoint to the illuminated area and literally balance the picture. The picture appears very "clean" and through its exposure, which is also called "high-key", a timeless, less saturated picture is created, which appears timeless and noble.
