Morning mist in jura forest
A few weeks ago early in the morning i was driving through Valserine valley. The heavy rains of many days before created a lot of mist and a very special mood.
All my image of this day are here.

Mist and snow by an autumn morning
A few weeks ago i was thinking we wouldn't have any mist this autumn. I started to change my mind while doing the image in my previous post but the mist was still a little far. A few minutes later i was just into, for a short time ...
All my photos from this day have been published on my website, you can check them from this page.

First snow in Haute Savoie
For a few days we have some unusual early snow falls here.
I went yesterday morning for a little hike in the rural landscape around my home and went back with a few images.
I like this one with the village but also did some other ones of the trees with their orange leaves covered by snow.

Mist on the forest
An image from September 2011 with the first autumn mist rising on the mountain forest of Valserine valley.
I rarely process my photos in black and white but i had a good feeling with this one ...

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.

Weekly commented photo # 43 - Autumn mist in Valserine forest
Last week end we went to visit some friends living in Haut Jura Natural Park. The main purpose of such times is obviously not photography but they live in a really beautiful place, just a few steps from Valserine forest and i can't imagine going there without a camera.
My friend is a wood sculptor and we spent the saturday evening looking at his recent work, at my images, commenting each others ...
On sunday morning we both woke up early. He went to his workshop and i took my camera for a little walk in the forest.
It was a nice, quiet misty morning. I had spent the night speaking with a good friend and i was walking alone in an amazing natural forest. So it was a very beautiful moment.
As you may know, its difficult to have a really free mind and instead of contemplating the amazing forest around me, i was looking for autumn colours.
So i probably missed a lot a photo opportunities before i told me you're in a pine forest and their autumn colours are green not orange.
Then i started to look around me differently, to breath the morning mist and finally seated on an old mossy tree stump. After this short stop i continued my walk during a least two hours and got a few nice images.
This one is the result of a light tonemapping done with Picturenaut on a HDR image produced from 7 exposures.

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 ?
