The Zoniënwoud, Brussels

A few years ago, during a business trip, I had walked cycling in the forest near the Château de la Hulpe. Right in the fall colors were beautiful.

What a frustration at the time of not having my SLR available. I could not take a few shots with my iPhone ... sad consolation! I had then promised to return in the fall and to capture these colors.

What was my surprise when recently transferred Breton friends in Brussels tell me that they just moved a few miles from this magical place.

We're finally made this weekend but this time, the photographic equipment was at the meeting: tripod, Nikon D3S, optical 24-70 and 14-24mm, filters e tutti quanti. What to bring back some good memories of this wonderful day exploring trails and glades ... always looking to make great pictures.

Around the Clos Vorin, Normandy

The sun has just risen, I discovered through the bay window of the house where I stayed for the weekend, the first light illuminating the bucolic landscape, typical of our deepest Normandy.

I then decided it was time to go m'aérer and enjoy the atmosphere cool and moist for a morning walk.

The incessant crowing of the cock and far unable to disturb the relaxing atmosphere ... the cows graze peacefully, birds chirping and the sun slowly warms the scene.

I guess also that for a brief moment, the colors are soft and conducive to photography country ... With a Nikon D700 and a 24-70 perspective, I'm off to hunt the surrounding wildlife photography ... nothing to fear ... I do not hunt the pictures!

It's autumn!

Fall is an excellent time to photograph nature. The colors are soft and warm even if the weather is not always mild.

But now, lucky day! Bright sunshine. I wanted to enjoy this beautiful sunny day to get fresh air of the English countryside ... and then left to wander ... so take my camera ... you never know :-) )
