Photographic wanderings

• French

10 September 2011

Taking advantage of a touch of madness (yes!), I made a short walk to the Pointe de Miribel (above Bogève, Haute-Savoie) with a headlamp just for viewing a sunrise over the Alps(The photographs will follow this article soon). I woke up at 5:00 AM and was on the summit at 6:30 AM after 40 minute walking (not too long), the sun rising at 7:00 AM.

I could not resist the desire to show you have a panorama that I made at the top as the sun had not risen yet.

I will not deny that these were magical moments for me: on one side, the lights of the sun rising on the other belt of Venus (or anti-twilight arch).
 

Here below the “flat” version for having a global view.

Technically, there are some improvements to do:

• the wind was blowing a bit too much,
• the whitebalance was diffcult to tune

Well, I get the atmosphere I had there.
