Crossing the Bay:
The Bay of Mont Saint Michel on foot :
With the tides, the sea goes aways to reveal the Bay. A desert immensity open in front of you for a few hours. On the erased traces of forgotten paths, between sky, earth and sea, crossing sometimes capricious rivers, dancing on the quick sands, at the foot of the Archangel Saint Michael... before the sea comes to cover our steps.
