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.

Water between the rocks

Valserine river after the rain
We had some strong rain during the past weeks. It stopped yesterday and i decided to explore a part of Valserine river i had never visited before.
Just before the city of Bellegarde sur Valserine, the river suddenly plunges in a narrow and deep canyon so that it seems to disapear from the surface. This place is named Pertes de la Valserine.
Yesterday, due to the high water level, the spectacle was impressive, for the ears as much as for the eyes.

Green meadows and mountain forest in Valserine valley
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.

Autumn leaves in Valserine forest
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.

Spring water in Valserine forest
An image from May in Haut Jura Natural Park.
This mountain stream runs all over the year through the forest but spring is probably its most beautiful season.
A wider view of this place can be seen here.

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 ...

Endless stream in Valserine forest
One more from these few days in Haut Jura Natural Park about one week ago.
I know this noname stream for about one year and after the really rainy springtime we had here, i thought conditions were good for a few pictures.
Arrived on the place a little soon in the afternoon, i went for a walk through the beautiful forest, waiting for the sun to be lower on the horizon and came back when the light started to be good.

Springtime in Valserine forest
A few days old image from Haut Jura Natural Park.
The forest contains both deciduous and coniferous trees and this photo is a good illustration of how they blend and contrast.

White landscape in Valserine valley
An other image from the days i spent in Valserine valley at the end of 2011.
I returned a few days in Haut Jura Natural Park about one week ago. All the snow is now gone and springtime is rainy and cold. I mostly spent my time exploring some new places between Lajoux, Saint Claude and Longchaumois and i hope to be ready for some new images for the next decent weather period.
I'm currently working hard on some new features for my main website and i'm very late in processing and publishing new images but i found a short time to post 8 new photos of Nernier 2 days ago.

Cold and powerful water in Valserine river
That's a place of Valserine river i've left unexplored until last week.
Access between snow, rocks and ice in a strong slope was not exactly easy but at least i spent a nice time there and came back with 2 or 3 interesting images.
This one comes from a HDR work done with 5 exposures processed mostly with Picturenaut.
