I went yesterday for a scouting walk in some new places along the Usses river.
Points of view of the river itself were no really interesting but i found some nice scenes in the forest just near.

One more autumn view of the french countryside in the mist after the first snowfalls in november.
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.
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.
I've published all the images from my first visit to this lake a few days ago on my french website. You can check them here.
Lake Génin is a little lake i discovered a few days ago in the mountains of Ain department.
It was a short visit and i came back with a few images. I start today with this one done using a combination of multiexposure and camera motion.
Bénit lake is an alpine lake in Massif des Bornes and located just under Bargy mountain at an elevation of 1477 m.
The place is beautiful, surrounded by white cliffs and green coniferous forests.
I went there for a family walk in july and returned a few days ago to make images.
Another view of Haut Jura Natural Park done a few weeks ago in the deep forest of Champfromier.
I'm just back from a short visit to some friends living in Valserine valley. This little trip in Haut Jura Natural Park was not photography oriented and i just took a very short time two days ago for a few images of the surrounding landscape. This one was done just near my friend's house and i think it gives a very nice view of the summer here. In winter these fields and coniferous trees are under tons of snow.
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.
A detail recently caught in the forest near my home.
I'm not sure such bark is sign of good health for the tree but at least it makes beautiful images.
You may be surprised by the title but this image is from last week when we could beleive that spring was there ...
Another image from yesterday still about the same subject : These hazel tree flowers hanging in the rain.
The motion blur is really due to vertical panning applied to the camera during the exposure.
SOME NEWS :
First post here for more than 3 months ...
2012 has been an amazing year on the business side. Many and many projects for different clients and some still needed all my time in the first 2013 quarter. That's a very good thing, good but tiring and i really had no free time for personnal photographic projects. I'm still very busy but things seem to go better and better and i hope it will continue ...
The image above was done about one hour ago and is a closeup view of the tree in front of my kitchen. It gives a good idea of what the beginning of spring looks like here this year ...
Another image from this morning i spent in the snow about 10 days ago.
Sun and clouds played during a short time until clouds won.
About one week ago along Fornant river.
I was not very active here during the past weeks. One of the clients for which i make architecture images about wood made buildings asked me to design an application to show my images on a large multitouch screen in Paris during the next days.
I had in a very short time to choose and buy hardware and software and develop the presentation.
I choose a 46 inches Samsung display with a multitouch overlay from PQ Labs. About software, after a few tries and as i was in a hurry, i went for IntuiFace Presentation. It's a very nice application, really user friendly and which doesn't need any real programmation. It has of course a few limits but it made the job.
On thursday, while i was walking through the colza fields in the rural landscape around my home, i found this little pond and thought the shapes and mixed colors of the willow branches could make an interesting image.
