- Travel with me to Étretat, which is a charming village in Normandy in the North of France. This place is famous for its fantastic white alabaster cliffs that surround the village on either side. I explore the cliffs during sunrise and sunset and make some new landscape pictures. I also provide some travel tips on how to plan your photography trip.

Awesome video! Beautiful job Christophe.
Sweet memories of a visit with my late husband to Normandy. Thank you, it is beautifully done.
Enjoyed this video and your great pictures of the sunset. Too bad you missed the sunrise, but this happens. Étretat is definitely a place one should visit.
All your videos are excellent love to watch them well done
Many thanks Tom. Glad you enjoy my channel.
Awesome video! The photos from both sunsets turned out fantastic.
Thank you Nick. I am quite happy with the pictures, especially with those from the first sunset. Nothing from sunrise, but that's life.
Tried to get to this venue 2 years ago but sadly failed, you photographs show exactly why I want to visit. I feel a camping trip coming on 👍🍷
Nice photo. love your work ! Super travail Christophe !
Merci beaucoup. :-)
Du hast mich wieder auf einen genialen Spot gebracht ;) Danke! Ich werde das mal Ende November testen, wenn das Wetter mitspielt, dann geht die Sonne an der Nadel unter.....
Dear Christophe,
Very nice video. It would be very nice if you could give some more information about the lens settings (mm, lenstype, cameratype,
f-values
, etc.). For the rest you did an excellent job
.
Top footage!
Cool video
great shots love your work. What F-stop bag do you have?
Thank you Bill. I am using an F-stop Loka.
You gave me the will to start shoot landscapes agin...
That is awesome Tomislav. Have fun!
Christophe, what instrument did you used for this pics? Im heading there coming up soon and would like to be sure that I take the right gear with me.
Christophe, what are the rules for drone photography?
Careful with the drone at Etretat, it's illegal to fly it over the town. The cliffs are fine, but anywhere there's houses no. You can check this map for authorized locations : actu.fr/loisirs-culture/carte-peut-on-faire-voler-drone-normandie_465500.html
Your numbering and sorting of vids is a little bit confusing. I would prefer to see thin information in the title I see beside the picture. Such as Iceland Part 1 of 5.
Hey there. You can watch them all in the correct order with this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PL3OUMeZYAJBN0RQuBHR0CNsW0QOcTiMhv.html
Enjoy! ;-)
Christophe - I enjoyed your vlog and subscribed to your channel - what a beautiful coastline! I also thought your advice regarding preparations for shooting was quite good. I would appreciate it if you would take a look at my channel and if you like the content subscribe as well. Thanks, Dave
