Album Description:
The famous pink color of the granites is a relatively rare phenomenon (known worldwide only three times: from this place in Britanny then from Corsica and China). It is due to the presence of haematite in the feldspaths or to the action of ferrous flu

Bonsoir, Henri et Kaethi! Guten Abend, Henri und Kaethi! Merci beaucoup pour le partage de cette tres belle collection des images de la Bretagne! Chaque photo est superbe -- and the client "slideshow" is a sheer delight to watch. My husband and I visited the Cote de Granite Rose many years ago, so I particularly appreciate the power of your delightful images to evoke numerous pleasant memories. I hope to return to comment on individual pictures -- Thank you very much, also, for your generous comments on my CC "autumn" contributions; I appreciate the time that you took to write! I enjoyed looking for and sharing pictures in this community collection -- and enjoyed even more looking at the photos of others. Je vous souhaite une excellente semaine! Best wishes, Rebecca

I love Webshots! We can visit around the world and never leave the yard! Thank you for your kind remarks. I find the Pink Granite beautiful naturally and the art pieces as well. It makes me want to visit the Heather & Rush as well. Excellent, thank you

Kaethi and Henri - Beautiful album, such interesting rock formations. Thanks also for your comment on my Mt.St.Helens album. It impressed me, even 20 years later now, how little recovery there was in the region. I can't imagine what it would have looked like only 2 years after the eruption. Mike

Great photos! My friends, just wanted to apologize that I have not kept up with your creativity of late. I just returned from a 2 week road trip to the Four Corners area of the US, have 5 days worth of uploads to caption and title, and 6 days worth still to upload. I'll be busy trying to get my albums in order, so please excuse my lack of attention for a couple of weeks.

Un bien bel album Kaethi et Henri que j'ai parcouru avec grand plaisir... Une belle évasion au mileu des embruns et de l'iode ! Merci également pour votre passage sur mon album "Island of Naxos (1/4) (Greece)" et votre charmant commentaire. Je pense que votre séjour dans les années 50 devait être une vraie expédition ! Et les îles devaient être bien plus sauvages, authentiques (et sans touristes !) qu'aujourd'hui... Amités bon dimanche Daniel

Kaethi and Henri, it was interesting to see these granite rocks with their unique color. Thank you very much for taking us to this coast in Britany! Thanks also for your visit to my album of Sighisoara and for your very kind words in the guestbook! Now you made me curious to know why Dracula played an important role in life as a youngster... Wishing you both all the best, Yair.

You got my attention when I saw the word granite. The sculptures as well as quantity of pink granite is incredible. I enjoyed your granite labels pertaining to the many shapes. Reagards Roger

Hello, Kaethi and Heinz, this is a fantastic album. I just love those beautiful big pink rocks, and all the sculptures are wonderful. Thanks so much for your visits to my new album. I was still in the process of creating it, so perhaps it was not finished yet. It's good to hear from you. I'll go see some more of your recent photos. Love from Arizona, Carole

Don't worry though I'm not deserting Webshots I will still post pictures here although I guess most of my attention will be on my website. Take care now, Love, Jill

Hi Henri and Kaethi this is a beautiful album! I love to take pictures of rocks and beautiful beaches. Thanks for your kind words on my French Pyrenees album. I had a great time on this trip, and I will share the rest of the albums soon. This is a great area for walking and sightseeing. I am glad you had the chance to enjoy this reigon. Regards Nurit

Dear Kaethi and Heinz, What a really interesting album which I have greatly enjoyed viewing as I always do yours :o) I really enjoyed seeing the natural rocks in all their shapes and the names they are given. Then all those amazing sculptures created from the stone were great too But you know for me the best one was the macro of the stone showing all the amazing lichens that grow on it :o) Hope you are both well. Take care now, Jill

Hello Heinz and Kaethi, Your album of the Côte d'Armor is very beautiful. The rock formations of the pink granite stones are amazing and fantastic at the same time. No doubt you had a wonderful trip to Brittany. Thanks for the invitation! Mes salutations, Tjebbe

Bonjour Heinz et Kaethi, Celui-ci est un album admirable qui aura surement fait les delices d'un geologue appele Heinz. Pour un spectateur comme je, il y a deux choses differenciees dans l'album, l'oeuvre humaine et l'oeuvre de la nature. Cette derniere est tres belle, mais l'oeuvre de l'homme est le complement parfait pour jouir de ce lieu privilegie. La moitie d'Espagne est granitique (l'ouest de la peninsule iberienne), une grande partie de la moitie nord est de roche calcaire et le reste de l'Espagne d'un autre type de roches est tres varie. J'ai vu beaucoup de choses jolies du granit, mais cet album est admirable. Merci de le partager. Une embrassade et tout mon affection mes chers amis. Jesus

Very nice album, I would have left this message on your message page but this is a nice place to visit and comment. I will come back later. You asked me if I was storing my pictures of antiquity in some other place than on Webshots, the answer is yes. I have my pictures saved on a 100 gig removable hard drive to preserve them. I’m not sure what I want to do with them perhaps give them to a university if they are interested. Norm

Trotz mangelnder Sonne, die Ihr beiden dafuer im Herzen traegt, ist Euer Ferienalbum wunderbar geworden. Werde bestimmt ab und zu an dieser zauberhaften Kueste auftauchen. Hezlichen Dank auch,liebes Käthi, fuer die Congrats zu meinen weissen Tigern. Es wurden bereits ein paarmal Bilder davon featured.Aes grosses Merci auch fuer Deinen Besuch in Murten. Ich muss mich ein wenig ablenken, unser so heissgeliebtes Mooglileinchen fehlt mir so sehr. Ich sehe ihn auf Schritt und Tritt vor meinem geistigen Auge. Muss mich aber fuer die andern Schätzeli zusammnreissen da sie ihn ganz offensichtlich suchen. Viel Erfolg und ein wunderschoenes Wochenende. Jean isch anere Klassenzusammenkunft z' Nidau.

Quel bel album, des sites que j'ai aussi pu visiter il y a 8 ans - immuables dans leur beauté sauvage. Les contrastes de couleur sont fascinants et une constante inspiration pour les artistes de tout poil. Beaux souvenirs de belles vacances, et très belles photos! Merci!

A very interesting album, the sculptures of the natural world as well as the sculptures of man are lovely. Shapes in all its forms can be very expressive. I was interested to see it is the iron content that gives the colour, we have some famous cliffs near here with brown iron laden sandstone overlayed with red iron bearing chalk & topped with white chalk, facinates most people who see it.
