Weekly commented photo # 30 - Alpine meadow on Grand Cret d'Eau mountain

That's a really recent image taken just a few hours ago.

After my first visit a few weeks ago, i returned this evening to the Grand Crêt d'Eau mountain. I wanted to explore a little more and eventually make photos of Leman lake and Jura mountains in dusk light.

As i left home under a beautiful blue sky, i was surprised to find such a cloudy and windy weather on the mountain. The elevation here is only 1380m but beleive me, i was happy to have a polar vest to wear over my t-shirt.

Surprised by the clouds and seduced by the light i spent the last hours of the day here, trying different compositions and lights.
After a short time, all the cows probably intrigued gave me a little visit to see who was gesticulating in the field with a big black tripod. They looked at me during a few minutes and as i'm definitely not an interesting people they returned to their place where grass was probably better.
