Here a fisherman with a straw hat sits under the shade of a sail, mending his net.
These are the colourful hulls of traditional Yoles Rondes sailing boats, painted in the colours of the sponsor: Lorraine, the local beer.
And then as I was chatting to a friend, we spotted a Yoles Rondes coming into shore. I got there just in time to take a couple of photos.
It was being sailed by a group of young guys.
No doubt, they were practicing for the annual Yoles Rondes regatta held in August.
There's a real simplicity and natural beauty to these Yoles Rondes.
