Description
I wasn't sure whether to post this one or not, as it's basically the same scene as the last one, but taken from a different angle (obviously, I decided I liked it well enough to post it). I have a few more from Honfleur to post, but the others are in different locations & very different from these two...
From the Wikipedia article on Honfleur: "It is especially known for its old, beautiful picturesque port, characterized by its houses with slate-covered frontages, painted many times by artists, including in particular Gustave Courbet, Eugene Boudin, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind, forming the ecole de Honfleur (Honfleur school) which contributed to the appearance of the Impressionist movement."

Beautiful.
I'm glad you posted it! very lovely scene
You've captured old world charm with modern day vision wonderfully!
So picturesque! The colours melt together so well, and I do love that old architecture. Gorgeous shot!
Very nice, but I think you should Photoshop out the three big motor yachts and make it look more like it might have looked in the time of Monet.
That diffused lighting from the overcast sky certainly seems to work great in this shot. I can see why so many painters have loved this subject. An excellent shot!
beautiful!! looks still the same as a zillion years ago TG
Very colorful villa.
Beauty
Very charming town!
SO different from anything in my experience. I'm happy to see this angle. Thanks for posting it!
Wow, this is one of my favourite genres when photographing European cities. I love the way you brought out the soft tones and did not tempt yourself with a vivid rendition.
This is a wonderful POV also and interesting history too!
