Stepping Stones [EXPLORED]

The Côte d'Opale is a French coastal region bordering Belgium, situated opposite the cliffs of the south-east of England, facing the English Channel and the North Sea. It contains varied landscapes like beaches, dunes, swamps, estuaries or cliffs.

 

Many artists have been inspired by its landscapes. It was the painter Édouard Lévêque who coined the name for this area in 1911 to describe the distinctive quality of its light.

 

This photo was taken during the low tide. The low tide reveals huge rocks and stones and creates a totally different setting opposed to the high tide.
