Photographer's Note
Some early mornings are magic. In fact, I realize more and more that wherever you are, an early morning always brings beautiful surprises. For the wildlife hunter, it's sometimes the last chance to catch an animal, for the macro freak, moisture droplets enhance any flower or a spider net. Walking with eyes wide open is the secret. During this period of the year, haze and dawning sun are a real plus to enhance blubells, tender greens and a wet alley in the forest. Nature at it's best, friendly, quiet and enchanting.

A beautiful and immensely atmospheric shot. I love the composition and how the gray, green and blue colors complement each other. This really is magic :)

Marcher en foret dans la brume est une belle experience, la photo la traduit bien.

Great low angle, but this one really has it all. Colourful forground and misty muted background. As an addition to this I like that you.ve maneged to keep the colours violet and lush greens in the right hand side of the pic and kept the greys to the left. This makes this pieceful shot even more balanced. One fine piece of work. Congratulations!
I think it can be cropped to a more normal format without too much loss. I'll try a workshop.

Yes, you are right, there is a lot of magic here. A very nice POV, and a very good composition. I like your note, too.

Not only nature but also you at your best with this photo. Not magic but mystic atmosphere.

Oh...this really is magic. I like the misty atmosphere and the contrast of grays and greens. The path not only gives nice depth to the image, but also works nicely to guide me through the shot as well. You compo here is really well balanced. If you have some time, maybe you can even try it in B&W or duotone...could be a fun experiment. Well done!

Magic indeed. The path disappearing on the curve into the mist creates a wonderful air of mystery. Colours are superb, composition the same. I think I have to add it to my favourites....

Superbe photo par temps de brouillard, Jean-Michel. L'ambiance semble mystique et ces fleurs ajoute de la fraicheur à la photo.

Avant que de parler de la photo, je tiens à vous dire que j'aime beaucoup votre note. "Les yeux grands ouverts", c'est une notion que j'ai découverte un peu en même temps que ma passion pour la photographie, et c'est vrai qu'on n'a jamais fini de s'émerveiller.
A propos de s'émerveiller, merci mille fois pour cette image. Je ne suis pas du matin (il faut absolument que je change ça !!!) mais heureusement que des lève-tôt comme vous sont là pour me donner envie de faire sonner plus tôt mon réveil ;-)
Le contraste entre la brume et les couleurs d'avant-plan est magnifique... et magique, très bon choix de titre.

It is true that magic is happening here! Your leading lines of the road work so well here, and everything is complimented by those cute blue flowers.Super exposure and wonderful vertical lines.

Moment magique très bien saisi Jean Michel. Ce brouillard dans lequel le sentier s'enfonce me fait penser à la vie qui s'éveille. Bravo.

Superbe photo! Le brouillard diffus rend cette photo mystérieuse, presque inquiétante (malgré les fleurs colorées tentant de nous rassurer...). La forêt est ici magnifiée. J'adore.

It is a great soft natural scene, Jean Michel, I like the misty atmosphere and the contrast of grays and greens, a little bit skooky. Well done!
Thanks for sharing.

I who like the mist, I am served here. Your title describes well the atmosphere loosened(kicked away) by your photo which is excellent due to its well controlled technique.
Moi qui aime la brume, je suis servie ici. Votre titre décrit bien l'atmosphère dégagée par votre photo qui est excellente de par sa technique bien contrôlée. Ces fleurs bleues à l'avant-plan sont superbes.

Wow! You've captured a very dreamy atmosphere here. The road going to an unseen place in the fog and the pretty purple flowers do add a touch of magic to the whole scene. One can almost feel the humidity in the air. I like your note too. I started being an early riser with my baby and also experienced some great moments thanks to her. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Jean Michel. I like the mood of your photo, it's a very misterious photo. It have a good point of view and a interesting composition. Very good job.

beautiful balance ! all types of colours in their majestic presence, and the most important thing is that, it's from nature ! I love the back & fore ground combinations as well.

bonjour JM
je vois que ce magnifique cliché a déja eu un succès mérité sur le site et je m'y associe sans réserve! j'apprécie tout particulièrement ce thème des sous bois dans la brume qui est assez récurent sur TE et cette photo est un vrai petit chef d'oeuvre en la matière: touche de couleur des fleurs et contraste détaillé du premier plan à droite, dynamique de la jolie courbe du chemin, cadrage bien équilibré, autant de détails qui mettent particulièrement en valeur la luminosité délicatement dégradée de l'ensemble.
Amicalement
Olivier
