Area called "the 1000 ponds" in département de Haute-Saône, about 108 miles N/E from Dijon
I wanted to see this region on a sunny day. So I went there yesterday. I was lucky: it was not only a quite sunny day but also quite foggy... which added some "mystic ambiant". The local "tourist office" pretends that this area has to be called "little Finnland". I have never been in Finnland, so I wonder if the landscapes there and here are really similar?

Here, an intense and very typical smell fleets: no doubt, autumn is here.

Could this one be seen also in Finnland?

I knew immediately I must capture those glowing transluscent herbs precisely separated from that silky foamy background.

slowly, the sun gradually makes the mist disappear (making France looks like Finnland...or vice-versa?)

In the middle of nowhere, a bench is offered for meditation. The silence is total, as if suffocated in cotton

And in this dream setting, why is the local wildlife hiding...why is it so mute? No manifestation of animal life

Oh! another rare trace of human activity

Too bad...it is now really dark to capture even more beautiful "Finnish scenes". But the sky offers to close the day in a nice way

Thank You. It just happened I was lucky: fog, light and subjects met together at the right moment and I was on site, ready to shot...

Yes, Plieku69, the area is calming! During this whole day, we encounter maxi 10 persons, some were walking and the other were cycling? Thank You for watching and liking!
Nice scenics all--enjoyed! The fourth is my favorite.
