This autumn, I captured a tranquil scene in the Jura that perfectly embodies the calm and beauty of the season. The photograph features a still lake, its surface acting as a flawless mirror for the trees lining its edge. Above the lake, delicate wisps of veil-like clouds drift across the sky, their reflections blending harmoniously with the mirrored treetops.
Taken in monochrome, the image strips away the distractions of color, allowing the focus to rest on the textures, tones, and interplay of light and shadow. This minimalistic approach highlights the purity of the moment—just the lake, the trees, and the silent whispers of the season.
What I love most about this photo is the stillness it conveys. There’s an almost meditative quality to the calm water and the muted tones, a reminder of the quiet beauty that can be found in nature when we take a moment to pause and observe. For me, this image isn’t just a photograph; it’s a reflection of serenity and simplicity in a busy world.
