Road in autumn forest
I thought to some other destinations but with a bad cold i decided to stay around home and return in Arcine forest for more images around this beautiful little road.
The first autumn colors are here but still very shy.

Old branches in the forest
On monday morning i returned to Arcine with some images in mind. As often, wheather near Rhône river was not what i expected and compromised my ideas.
After seriously thinking driving back home immediately, i went for a forest walk and ended with a few interesting photos.

Gold on Rhône river
Yesterday morning i returned to Arcine for some new images of Rhône river.
I spent the first hour of soft light with photos of the nice forest on the river banks and when the light became too strong, i stayed a little and played with the reflections on the water.
All my images of Rhône river ar here.

Rural landscape in the morning mist
I've spent many times shooting during this autumn for personnal and clients projects and know i'm late with tons of file to process...
This one send us back to the last day of september when i went to Arcine to get images of the autumn around the Rhône river.
The nut tree near the rural path can also be seen here.

Fall colours around Arcine castle
I returned to Arcine on friday evening.
I wanted to catch a little more of the autumn colours along the Rhône river.
Arriving on the place, i noticed the beautiful colours on the forest surrounding the castle and spent a little time here before going to the forest closer to the river.

Mist and autumn colours on the Rhône river
Another one from this misty autumn morning around Arcine.
In the background, you can see through the mist, the slopes of the Vuache mountain.

Weekly commented photo # 40 - Lonely tree in a misty rural landscape
This is an autumn image without the usual autumn colours. Nuts are still on the walnut tree and this one is still mostly green.
The photo was done in Arcine, just near the village.
I stopped there while i was on the road to go to the Rhône valley for images of the autumn forest along the river. The valley is a few kilometers behind this tree and was lost in a deep fog when i arrived.
I noticed this misty scene around the tree while driving but followed my initial idea and went to the Rhône. Seeing there wouldn't be any good photographic opportunities near the river before at least one hour, i drove back to this field where the fog was a little lighter.
I did a few compositions turning around the tree with a wide angle lens and some soft GND filters. After that i walked back to my car that was parked a little above the field and then tried some other images from the road with a longer lens.
While i was walking, the mist became deeper and deeper and when i arrived on the road, there was so much fog between the tree and i that my autofocus couldn't work.
I switched the camera to manual focusing and did a few images before driving back to the river where i had to wait about half an hour for the fog to disappear and make photos like this one.
About the last images of the walnut tree i made from the road, they nicely show the tree silhouette in the mist but i still hesitate about how to process them. Will i keep the very soft silhouette or will i try to get something more detailed ?

Autumn morning along the Rhone river
On friday, i returned at dawn to the Rhône river near Arcine.
I arrived there really soon and all the valley was in a really deep fog. The river was quite invisible. So i came back a little more close to the village where i could do a few beautiful images of some misty rural landscapes.
One or two hours later, the mist was gone and i could return to the river and catch some beautiful autumn colors reflected in the river.

The forest along the Rhône river and 5 sites to discover
I don't have posted anything in my 5 sites to discover serie for a long time.
So, here are 5 beautiful photography websites which were waiting in my Delicious bookmarks for a while.
- Lizzie Shepherd
An english photographer, her website contains beautiful images from around the world, available for prints and stock. - Dietrich Gloger
Based in Austria, Dietrich Gloger defines himself as a hobby photographer. He works with digital and analog (4x5) cameras. You will certainly no regret your visit to his website. - Charles Cramer
Do i really need to present him ? Charles Cramer is probably one of the most famous contemporary american landscape photographer and looking at its galleries will be a true pleasure for your eyes. - Michael Hall
I can't define his contemporary style but most of the photos i've seen in the galleries are outstanding. Michael Hall was a finalist in the Hasselblad Masters 2009. - Lon J Overacker
An american nature and landscape photographer still working with large format film. Spend a nice time in his galleries !

Weekly commented photo #18 - Arcine castle on the Vuache mountain
This very little castle was probably built in the 12th century.
I've heard of it many times since we came back to live in Haute Savoie and i wanted some images for my stock. That's why i came to Arcine for the first time.
As you can imagine, i was a little disapointed when i saw the castle for the first time. I was expecting something a bit more spectacular.
I turned around during a moment but the best point of you i found this day was this one. It's a bit far from the monument but it shows the most interesting walls and it was going well with the light of this end of afternoon. It also shows how the castle hangs on the slope of the Vuache mountain.
