cairns, a photo from Provence-Alpes-Cote-dAzur, South

Photographer's Note

he cairns, a pile of stones, which are also called "Montjoie" in the Cévennes, were originally erected to indicate a path; but now many are those whose function is only aesthetic.
this is the case of those on the shores of Lake Verdet at 2,503 meters above sea level (an easy hike from the Ubaye valley)

Salut Christine,
Bien cadrés ces cairns avec le plus très photogénique des reflets, de belles tonalités vertes, intéressant complément avec la note qui accompagne au sujet des cairns, ces balises d'antan.

Hi Christine, I haven't known that such piles of stones are called cairns. People build them in many places, usually in the mountains. In Uzbekistan they are for luck and should be built from seven stones .

Nice reflections. best regards Malgo

Bonjour Christine,

Les reflets sur l'eau sont des atouts à la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails des monticules de pierres. La lumière donne de belles teintes aux couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.
