The Rhône is one of the main river in France. It's not really a french one because it comes from the Swiss alps, feeds the Leman lake and then comes into France at one end of the Vuache mountain. Then it crosses the country to the Mediterranean sea during 545 kilometers.
This image was done 2 days ago on the first french kilometers of the river.
I went to Arcine in the late afternoon because i wanted to make images of the castle for my stock.
After what i went for a little exploration at the end of the Vuache mountain and while driving i saw the Rhône valley through the trees along the road.
As my initial exploration about the mountain was not successful i decided to change my goals a to find a nice point of view on the river.
After a few kilometers drive, i found a little road leading to a perfect place offering a nice overlooking view on the valley.
After setting up my tripod and camera plus a long lens and making a few test shots, i waited a little less than one hour for a better light. All the day was really windy but fortunately the wind stopped at dusk and that really helps to get sharp images from a telephoto lens.
As told yesterday, i really love these fresh colors of springtime but i hope this place will still give better images in autumn.

Magnifique comme vue! Tu as bien fait de chercher un belvédère, ça nous permet de mieux apprécier l'endroit. Je suis d'accord avec toi, drapé des couleurs de l'automne ce paysage va être de toute beauté!
