The sea front of Ambleteuse, Saturday night, before the rain. In the distance, the village of Audresselles, on the left, the sea at low tide and on the right, the street. A car passes by, a couple sitting on a bench draws a dark line in the light of the headlights.

A group of seals naps on a beach. One at the back is waking up and stretching feet up in the air.

5 seals on a beach, 4 asleep, one waking up and stretching tail up, as seals do.

Two people are sitting on folding chairs on a beach. In front of them is a mug and a stationary farm tractor. They seem to be watching the tractor.

A black and white photo of a man standing on a beach, his left arm raised high, his right hand level with his chin. He is wearing only cargo shorts and a cap. The brand of his underwear is visible above his belt. He seems happy.

Lifeboat awaiting a rescue mission in case any refugees attempt to cross to England.

Late afternoon on a French beach opposite Dover. A barrier on the sea wall frames 3 groups of people on the beach, a child running from one group to another. Behind them, a lifeboat is moored, awaiting a rescue mission in case any refugees attempt to cross to England.

On a beach with rocks in the background a strange body with 3 knees and 3 arms is doing yoga. Closer inspection reveals 2 persons lying close enough to be fused by perspective and underexposure.

Waken up by roaring engines and blue flashlights. A fishing boat had signalled a sea incident to the Sea Rescue Team. They deployed 100 meters from our home. They didn’t find a body, but a migrant drowned that night, 50 km up north.

In the middle of the night, two rescue team members are lighting up the shoreline with a powerful torchlight, searching for bodies in the water. We see rocks and crashing waves.

Close up from above of something looking like a rocky landscape with strange pyramidal tree growing on top of a hill. In fact, it is a clump of moss growing on the bark of a cherry tree. The moss is less than 2mm in height. Picture taken in the garden with a 185/2.5 macro lens.

A man doing TaÏ Chi, standing on 1 foot, arms and one leg up. On a beach with rocks in the background. His doc, which was totally impervious to Taï Chi, was more interested in another dogs, as seen in the next picture. The dog of the Taï Chi man from the previous photo is interested in another dog, playing with a woman, on the same beach with other rocks in the background

Migrant's clothes washed up on Sangatte Beach

Full story and more pictures: nikongear.net/revival/inde...
Black clothes discarded by migrants are washed on Sangatte beach. A ferry is crossing the chanel on the horizon. Migrants drop anything they don't need for the crossing, such as blankets or baby nappies, or anything that might prevent them from swimming if they fall overboard: shoes and, despite the cold, warm clothes.

When I retired we bought a house in a small seaside town with long beaches on the French coast. We're regularly there since.

The city beaches are an ideal starting point for migrants

Last year, 13 people died here

Story+pictures: nikongear.net/revival/inde...
A handwritten message left by migrants in the prayer book of the local church: It was a nice time here. Pray for us from Ethiopia Erythrea. Thanks. Me and my friends really need your prayers. Thanks Good. In a makeshift camp in the dunes, 5 life jackets remain, next to abandonned clothes, bags and blankets A small boat is fighting the waves close to a rocky shore, with many people already on board. Only a few of them are wearing a life jacket. 3 migrants are walking in the waves, trying to reach the boat. Clothes discarded by migrants are slowly recovered by the sand on a beach used as a starting point for crossing the channel.
