Ploumanac'h lighthouse rises above a landscape of round granite blocks on the Breton coast. Built from the same stone as its surroundings, it almost seems to have grown out of the rock massif itself.
The tower, officially known as Phare de Mean Ruz, marks one of the most characteristic points of the Côte de Granit Rose. Its colour and texture blend seamlessly with the natural shapes of the surrounding rock. In the foreground are massive, rounded rocks in shades of pink to reddish-brown - formed by millions of years of erosion.
A stone bridge connects the path to the lighthouse, and visitors in the background give a sense of scale and presence. The sky is cloudy but clear, enhancing the colour contrast between stone and sky.
This image shows the unique relationship between man and landscape in Brittany - where architecture blends with nature rather than dominating it.
