Intro
The Channel islands are closer to France than to England, and they form a universe unto themselves, both in landscape, a mixture of cliffs, beaches and English countryside, and in politics : they have been connected to the British Crown since 1204, but are not part of either England or of Europe.
The purpose of this site is to use aerial photographs to help you discover not only Jersey and Guernsey, which are the best known islands, but also Alderney, the northernmost, Sark and Herm, the smallest, and the astonishing plateau of the Minquiers, which is often absent from maps.
This site will be progressively sited with photos from other British islands.
