That was taken some years ago at the tallest lighthouse in Europe called L'Isle Vierge not far from me in the west of Finistère near to the village of Guisseny and is a famous photograph here. If you watched the Coast programme that explored Brittany, the scots presenter actually met the lighthouse keeper and presented him with a framed copy of that famous photo. Apparently he did not realise the wave was going to be so huge

All those light houses along the north Brittany coast........ fabulous. I remember whilst we were there I hankered after spending some time in one of those lighthouses during a storm or two, I'd love it.

The  keeper is called Theordore Malgorn. He actually only opened the door because he heard a helicopter coming otherwise he did not ever venture outside when it was rough. He had no idea the wave was coming andmanaged to get back inside before it hit. You can see his interview on Coast Brittany visit on youtube.
