The viaduct of Eauplet is a railway viaduct allowing the railway line from Paris to Le Havre to cross two arms of the Seine upstream from Rouen and the southeastern tip of Île Lacroix, between Sotteville-lès-Rouen , commune of the left bank, and Eauplet, district of the commune of Bonsecours on the right bank, bordering Rouen. Given the context of its construction, it has long been called "Bridge to the English", and still remains commonly referred to under this name today.
Rouen, capital of the northern French region of Normandy, is a port city on the river Seine. Important in the Roman era and Middle Ages, it has Gothic churches, such as Saint-Maclou and Saint-Ouen, and a cobblestoned pedestrian center with medieval half-timbered houses. The skyline is dominated by the spires of Cathédrale Notre-Dame, much-painted by Impressionist Claude Monet.
Since a few months I took very little time to shoot photos and share them here. As I got a few days for myself, I digged into the pile of shots I have in Lightroom and chose these.
This one is from a famous house standing on an old bridge in Vernon (Normandy). Nowadays, the bridge is gone and the house is a ruin, but it is still an incredible scene!

SSV Normandy SR2 in Lego. She stretches the tape at around 96" and is built to scale with my SR1. Real work started in February of this year and took around 225 hours and 15K parts. Bonus commentary in the other shots.
L’iconique Mont Saint-Michel : on voit distinctement les structures sur l’abbaye qui le coiffe : mes photos sont peut-être plus nettes qu’il y a 4 ans 😉 Les deux portes de la côte normande, avec un certain Mont connu dans le monde entier, comme me le confirment mes coéquipiers ! On a fait plusieurs passages au-dessus de ma région natale dernièrement, et ce ne sont pas les cibles qui ont manqué… À suivre 😉 🇫🇷
The iconic Mont Saint-Michel. You can clearly see the structures on the abbey that sits atop it – my pictures may be sharper than they were four years ago 😉 Both ends of Normandy’s strikingly beautiful and distinctive coastline, featuring one of its most iconic landscapes🇫🇷 We've been lucky to fly over my native region lately, and the region has a lot to offer, stay tuned

Another feature of the bay is the polders; they are especially suitable for growing vegetables. Polders are fertile lands reclaimed from the sea by building protective dykes ---- Join me to see the polders flood during the highest spring tide of the year in Mont Saint Michel in April on my Normandy Loire Valley Workshop, details at aperturetours.com
