May 2022 Picture of the Month

Amazingly, it had been four years since we had last visited France, but that was rectified last month with a trip to Brittany and Normandy. This picture was taken on 26 April in the port of Carentan on the Cotentin, and shows the stern and rudder of the 2008-built replica viking longship Dreknor – based on original surviving Scandanavian longships – which regularly gives visitors the experience of sailing as the Vikings did in the Middle Ages. Canon 5D MkIV, 24-105mm lens at 24mm.
