The Bay of the ha! Ha!
The historians do not intend themselves to give an exact explanation of the origin of the name of Bay of the ha! Ha!. For my part, I know 2 of them. But once again, I would like to recall you that there is no yet official reason. One of those would be that the name of origin of Bay of the ha! Ha! given by the Amerindians comprised several "A". The French, being unable to pronounce the name, simply pronounced "A".... (Imagines an Amerindian name with several A... Heskoueouaska kind) The second, and that which seems most probable to me, would be that when the French went up Saguenay for the first time, believed that they were to go straight when they arrived vis-a-vis at Bay of the ha! Ha!. Indeed, when one is vis-a-vis with bay, it is really necessary to turn to right to continue on Saguenay. And it should not be forgotten that in the beginning, there were no buildings at the bottom of Bay. Today, one can see the houses and even the streets, it would be thus difficult to be mistaken. To return from there with the origin of the name, as old French "haha" means "any obstacle abruptly stopping a way" or a dead end or a bottom of bag. When they arrived at the bottom of Bay, the French realized that it did not have there an exit, that it was thus a bottom of bag. Now, for which reason one wrote with!, once again, the historians cannot find the origin of it...

La Baie des Ha! Ha!

Les historiens ne s'entendent pas pour donner une explication exacte de l'origine du nom de la Baie des Ha! Ha!. Pour ma part, j'en connais 2. Mais encore une fois, j'aimerais te rappeler qu'il n'y a pas encore de raison officielle.

L'une de celles-ci serait que le nom d'origine de La Baie des Ha! Ha! donné par les amérindiens comportait plusieurs "a". Les Français, étant incapables de prononcer le nom, ont simplement prononcé les "a"....

(Imagine un nom amérindien avec plusieurs a... genre Heskoueouaska)

La seconde, et celle qui me semble la plus probable, serait que lorsque les Français remontèrent le Saguenay pour la première fois, croyaient qu'ils devaient aller tout droit lorsqu'ils arrivèrent face à la Baie des Ha! Ha!. Effectivement, lorsqu'on est face à la baie, il faut réellement tourner à droit pour continuer sur le Saguenay. Et il ne faut pas oublier qu'à l'origine, il n'y avait pas de bâtiments au fond de la Baie.

Aujourd'hui, on peut voir les maisons et même les rues, il serait donc difficile de se tromper.

Pour en revenir avec l'origine du nom, en vieux français "haha" signifie "tout obstacle interrompant brusquement un chemin" ou encore une impasse ou un cul de sac. Quand ils arrivèrent au fond de la Baie, les Français se rendirent compte qu'il n'y avais pas d'issue, que c'était donc un cul de sac.

Très belle prise de vue. Juste un petit détail seulement, l'horizon n'est pas tout à fait droit et cela me dérange quelque part.

Bonjour,

Belle prise de vue sur La Baie des Ha Ha. Félicitations pour l'expositions et les belles couleurs. J'aurai aimé un peu plus de contrastes et la cloture à gauche gène un peu.

Merci Jean Paul!

Hi Jeanpaul,
Good detail, colours and sharpness.
Composition and lighting are excellent. Good POV and framing.
Thanks for posting, have a great weekend.

Hi Jean Paul,
Good photo with beautiful colors and reflection, but I feel that it needs improvement. For one, it needs some rotation to the left. For the others, please see my WS.
TFS,
Niek

Great exposure too.

Hi Jeanpaul,

This is a lovely image and that is no joke...ha ha ha ! (sorry)

I like the composition; the way it draws you into the scene. Where were you; on a boat? I agree with the above comments and do like Niek's workshop too.

Très bonne photo de paysage Jean-Paul, j'aime beaucoup le contraste du bleu et du blanc. Très bien vue et bien réalisée. C'est vrai que l'horizon penche à droite, une petite rotation dans toshop et le tour est joué. :-) Merci,

Mario

C'qu'il est beau notre pays quand on l'observe avec les yeux du coeur!

Et avec une camréra aussi. Très belle image bien réussie. La composition au grand angle est superbe. La très grande profondeur de champs nous permet de voir la multitude d'îlot de glace. L'exposition est bien réussie et la lumière est superbe.
Belle réussite.

Hi JeanPaul
This is a beautiful tranquil scene you have captured and it has a very soothing impact. The lovely azure sky and the spacious icy-blue ocean give me a feeling of 'I wish I was there'.
The composition is great and the colours are good however, I believe a bit of saturation could improve it greatly. Also the ocean level is dropping down to the right, but I see Niek's workshop has already addressed these issues and it did your photo justice.
Well done and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Jeanpaul
Well... I can feel like home here! This awesome blue typical for Northern locations is sooo beautiful... The fjord is great, with the pieces of ice scattered all over... at least it is a sign of spring!
