Landing Beaches (Sword Beach)
So beautiful and so peaceful now; imagine that beach on June 6th, 1944, some 70 years ago, with “an invasion fleet from eight different navies, comprising 6,939 vessels: 1,213 warships, 4,126 landing craft of various types, 736 ancillary craft, and 864 merchant vessels. There were 195,700 naval personnel involved”. Their sacrifice shall be remembered.
Sword Beach (Riva Bella). Normandy. April 2014.
I'm a photographer and watercolourist. I have practiced photography since childhood and digital photography since 1995. I turned it into my main occupation in 2021. I own a photo studio in Paris, France.

Thanks for your visit Alfred. Let me know if and how I could help you if needs be. On your contact page you have written something about your G+ account but you forgot to add the links. Ditto for Facebook and Twitter.
I have seen plenty of useful items on your web-site about pc’s. However, I’ve got the viewpoint that lap tops are still more or less not powerful more than enough to be a good choice if you usually do jobs that require many power, like video modifying. But for internet surfing, word processing, and a lot other popular computer functions they are okay, provided you may not mind the little screen size. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
