Carnon Plage Sunrise - a photo on Flickriver

            Depending on the time of day, the scene at this beach is entirely different. I'm not sure which one I prefer better. 

Having spent almost a week here, I had plenty of opportunities to take in the view. I think perhaps that I like the early morning view for the stillness of the water. If I think about it much longer, I'll probably change my mind. 

The defining characteristic of Carnon Plage is the circularity of the shore. (BTW: Plage is the French word for beach.) Breakwaters were constructed to prevent erosion such that waves passing through form rings. The beach is therefore circular and, there is more of it than if it were merely straight.  In the end, it makes for good picture taking, which for me, is all that seems to matter.
