Pontusval.

Côte des Légendes.

Cette « Légende Noire » (voir page principale de la galerie) n’a jamais été historiquement prouvée dans les faits. Par contre sous l’Ancien Régime existait « Le Droit de Bris » permettant aux habitants des côtes de récupérer pour leur propre compte ou celui du seigneur local les marchandises échouées sur le rivage après un naufrage.

This "Black Legend" (see the main page of the gallery) has never been historically proven in fact. On the other hand, under the Ancien Régime there existed 'Le Droit de Bris', which allowed coastal residents to recover goods washed up on the shore after a shipwreck for their own account or that of the local lord.

So much better viewed in original size.

As usual, a gorgeous image of a fiery sunset sky over a rugged seascape!

The Black Legend has never been proven, like you said. It could have been the striking sunset scenes like these images you captured, that allured the sailors ashore. Fatal attraction by nature? Sunset is a lot more stunning and a lot more magical than sunrise. I think. ~VVV~
