Title: Carrelets

About the Photos:

The carrelets along the Breton coast are traditional fishing huts built on stilts above the water. These small, often simple wooden structures have a distinctive aesthetic: with their simple construction and open fishing nets that are lowered into the water at low tide, they are striking symbols of centuries-old fishing traditions. The carrelets exude a special charm, as they seem to exist in harmony with the rugged nature and the rhythm of the tides. Their unique appearance, blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings, attracts photographers and travelers alike. In their simplicity and functionality, they reflect the close connection between humans and the sea, standing as iconic landmarks of the coastal beauty of Brittany.
