About this photograph :
Vosges II
This triptych is composed of three photos taken of a landscape in a crepuscular light. Each photo is able to assert itself on its own, but one next to another they show the almost infinite expanse of a landscape. After the harvest, the fields glow orangey yellow in the soft autumnal evening light and their complementary colour contrasts with the blue sky. They give the impression of travel. These are pictures to recall crossing a beautiful landscape filled with harmony and calm.
