Landscape Photography in Normandy | How to plan your trip | Cliffs of Étretat

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.

Sweet memories of a visit with my late husband to Normandy. Thank you, it is beautifully done.

[JensErikThyholdt]

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.

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
.

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

[tomrichardson]

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?

[RM_Black_Forest]

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.

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
