i just love dramatic pictures - here's one of my fave's - i love the defiance of both man and structure - superb It's by a man called Jean Guichard ; Do you have a favourite dramatic picture ?
The was something on the TV about this a while ago where they spoke to the lighthouse keeper. Apparently he heard the helicopter and opened the door to have a look to see it. He was unaware of that wave approaching from behind. It is a superb photo.
Great pic , hope they were shouting get back in when they took it, is that a bike frame on the right?
We've got that very picture hanging on our wall . It is real...the photographer managed to catch it just at the right moment. Not sure what happened to his bike...
There's an interesting read on wikipedia detailing the story of the photograph... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Jument
That is a great shot. Don't fancy living there though. Would hate to get from the shops and forget the milk. Would be gutting.
