“It is 10:30 am on November 26, 1996. Since yesterday, a serious depression has become clear on our coastline with, at the end of the morning, gusts which may reach 130 km / h. At midday the gusts are more and more sustained, and the Quiberon Bay is white with sea spray running over an emerald green sea. Daniel, my pilot and friend, proposes to go on the Pointe des Poulains and its small white chapel, today in a gigantic fogger. Half a mile from this theater, Daniel positions his machine above the waves. The photo is there, I just have to take it. I only make two images, two plates would say the ancients. But what plaques! Later, Daniel will tell me that I shouted in my helmet while shooting: "F ... how beautiful it is!" – Philip Plisson
