Tévennec Lighthouse.

Mer d'Iroise.

Une famille, les Quéméré, s’installa à Tévennec au début du XXème siècle. Trois enfants naquirent durant le séjour des Quéméré à Tévennec. Pour les ravitailler en lait frais on fit venir de l’île voisine de Sein une vache que l’on nourrissait de fourrage importé ! Quelques poules et un cochon vécurent également sur cet îlot inhospitalier…

A family, the Quéméré, moved to Tévennec in the early 20th century. Three children were born during the Quéméré family’s stay at Tévennec. To supply them with fresh milk, a cow was brought from the neighbouring island of Sein. The animal was fed with imported fodder! Some hens and a pig also lived on this inhospitable islet…

J'aime ces belles roches brutes et abruptes au pied du phare, dressé fièrement.

Very nice image but it does look like a rather bleak place to raise children. V

Superbe image,
cet ilot est très escarpé, difficile et dangereux d'y vivre avec des enfants! V

a beautiful lighthouse there on that island, hard to believe that people and animals lived there, those were hard times for the people, a beautiful story Daniel BV

It does look inhospitable and precariously placed. A great shot with this crisp detail. "V"

Beautiful capture, however it's looks like a harsh place to live.

Very rugged and inhospitable. Just getting up the stairs must have been a challenge. V
