Some cool Westerns images:
Misty Western France
Image by Storm Crypt
It was a photo finish, trying to make it on the train bound for Cherbourg at the St. Lazare Station in Paris. The night before was a hectic one. It was probably an hour or two when I woke up... the weather has changed, and I'm probably a few hundred miles west from Paris now... my camera was still slinged to my neck... and so I started taking snaps from the fast moving train....
I would later learn that this place is part of the Haute Normandie region, and this shot was taken shortly after reaching the western border of ÃŽle-de-France. I have geotagged it to show it exactly on the map. My final destination is still miles away, within the region of Basse Normandie. Haute is "Upper" in French, while Basse is "Lower". This place then, translated to English, is part of the Upper Normandy region, in France.
