Un très bel endroit et surtout une très belle capture de cet endroit de recherches. Espérons qu'ils trouveront toutes les réponses pour palier à tous ces problèmes climatiques !
Très belle capture ! 5* pour moi.
Bonne journée Elaine

Coucou Elaine,
C'est une sacrée jetée, il doit être très agréable de s'y promener quand le vent ne souffle pas trop fort.
J'aime bien les volutes des vagues sur le sable en premier plan.
Très belle journée à toi.

It reminds me of the Chesapeak Bay B ridge and Tunnel. Beautiful point of view

Une jetée très profonde qui invite à se promener (quand le temps le permet) jusqu’au bout du ponton.

That is a long pier indeed and your perspective shows that nicely in the photo. I love the waves coming ashore as well.
