False predictions, a photo from Languedoc-Roussillon, South

Photographer's Note

The village of Bugarach and its peak were supposed to escape the end of the world announced by a few visionaries in the 21 of December 2012.
There were reports of UFO apparitions or night lights escaping or entering this mountain. Thousands of visitors came to attend this event that has never happened
The Aude's prefecture comes to prohibit access to the mountain three days around December 21 and its overflight
But a few days after that date the situation calmed

Les illuminйs qui ont annoncй la fin d le de Close Encounter of the Third Kind de Spielberg!
Un clфne naturel car le vaste avant-plan йtait aussi du scйnario en tant que train d'atterrissage pour UFO!
Intйressnte histoire racontйe dans la note.

Bonsoir Didi,

La distance entre le champ et la montagne donne de la profondeur а la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les dйtails et les couleurs de la montagne. La qualitй de la lumiиre embellit les couleurs de l'image. Bonne soirйe.

Hello Didi,
A splendid landscape composition and a very pleasant reminder of better weather to come on a very wet winter's day here in Charente-Maritime. Superb light and colours, fits class clarity.

Bonjour Didi,

Il y a encore beaucoup de monde qui croient aux extra terrestres. Mкme si il y a plus de 7 milliard de camйras sur la planиte et qu'aucune photo claire n'a йtй prise depuis 30 ans. Il faut apprйcier l'endroit pour ce qu'il est, d'une grande beautй.

Amicalement

Serge

ikeharel (114691) 2015-01-29 7:41

UFO's not visiting such a beautiful places like this... nice legend to draw visitores to a remote location, Didi.
Anyway, beautiful rural country, sheeps on their pasture gave yet good focal object on the whole.
Bonsoire'e,
Ike

Bonjour Didi,
OVNIs ou pas, cette annonce de fin du monde larvйe aura offert а la commune de Bugarach une sacrйe publicitй ! Jolie vue sur le massif rocheux nimbй d'un grand ciel bleu. Le point de vue permet de bien dйtailler l'йtagement de la vйgйtation dans ce mileu. Le petit tas de balles de foin constitue un point d'accroche dans le paysage. Une belle photo.
Amitiйs,
Jean

Coucou Didi,

Bonsoir Didi,

abmdsudi (95869) 2015-01-31 9:25

Hi Didi
What ever the story, this still makes a decent sweeping landscape in its own right for the warm colors, foreground interest, colour contrast and lovely clarity. Well done shot, Congrats
Best regards

mcmtanyel (69310) 2015-02-01 19:29

Hello Didi,
I suppose there were no UFO sightings around Dec 21st because the ETs heard about the overflight restrictions! This massive rock rising above green plains into the deep blue sky makes for a very pleasant photo.
Regards,
MT

berek (50518) 2015-02-01 21:44

Bonjour Didi,
The distance between the field and the mountain gives depth to the composition. Shooting allows you to see details and colors of the mountain. The light quality beautifies colors of the image.
Greetings.
Burak

ps: image size and resolution as you say. is it ok ?

rychem (72187) 2015-02-01 22:53

Hi Didi.
Curious story about the place I I ignored ... but outside of predictions, the scenery is charming with green meadow, the flock, the wooded slopes of the amount and rocky summit, a place that transmits peace and quiet.
Superb composition and color.
You enjoy a good week.
Best wishes.
Luis.

eldancer1 (36343) 2015-02-02 7:48

I know a person who believe that the world was ending but never happen and there's always an explanation why. Beautiful mountain, nicely captured with good lighting and sharp details. Well done, tfs.

ChrisJ (172436) 2015-02-03 12:52

Bonsoir Didi,

A wonderful blue sky background and I like the repetition of the clustered hay-bales towards the centre of the image. The diagonal fg fence adds dynamism. Good sharpness and excellent natural looking colour and saturation. The jagged bg rocky peak with cliffs makes an awesome backdrop. Its inverted v shape defines the horizon line. Tfs!

Cricri (176) 2015-02-04 8:29

Salut Didi,
Jolie cette vue de la montagne devenue connue mondialement, pour une histoire а dormir debout!
Le petit troupeau agrйmente la scиne de belle maniиre.

J'йtais en mode "ermite", donc excuse mon silence!
Amicalement

Angshu (56760) 2015-02-24 1:28

Salam dear Didi
A landscape with no trace of human existence except the hay rolls which create a good focal point. The rocky hill outcrop creates a nice backdrop...this place is of interest thanks what you mentioned in your note
Best Regards
Angshu
