Weather in this beginning of summer is ... rainy. My latest serious attempt to landscape photography ended with long drives without even leaving the car.
So, here are a few images of the plants in my garden, done sunday morning between two rain showers.

I've uploaded a serie of 13 new images about this subject on my website a few days ago. You can check them here.

Somewhere on the cliffs over Fornant river.
During a recent exploration of the lower part of the river, i left the main path to search a nice point of view from the top of the canyon. I wasn't successful in that way but i was seduced by the contrast between green leaves and the dark trunk of this old oak tree.

I don't have posted any image of Valserine valley for a long time.
I was reviewing photos on my website and noticed this one which was never published here although it's one of my fav done with my camera-shake method.

When i woke up this morning, the rain had miraculously stopped and i went to the garden for a short coffee walk.
In the wet atmosphere and under the soft light filtered by the grey clouds, all the greens had a wonderful look. These leaves are protected by a big tree and were not damaged by the strong rain.

Nights are less cold now and i can't continue that work as expected but low temperatures will certainly be back under a short time ...

Some beautiful autumn leaves i found yesterday morning in my garden.
When my wife saw the picture, she thought i had arranged the scene myself, but no, the leaves were really like that.

It looks like that this autumn will be a cold one here in France. For some times we have temperatures around 0 celsius, strong wind and often rain.
This morning i took my camera for a fresh walk in the garden and caught a few closeups of the frosted vegetation.
