For years I’ve been shooting on my trips around France, Europe, and even India, capturing great moments and memories.
I enjoyed so much sharing some of my best work with friends and family, with prints of my best pictures, or short films.
I feel now that I want to share more broadly and nostr feels like the best place to start just that, by offering a chance to more people to experience nature, mountains, seas, wildlife and biodiversity through my eyes. So here I am, sharing my first picture.
This is a male Ibex (or bouquetin in French), shot on the mountain « La Tournette » above Annecy at about 2000m (6500 ft). We were on our way to the top (about 2500m or 8200ft), when my wife SaltyLady (npub1y49llvlzsyasffesyy3k9u39zqp4rwawjpgh9jy2xu6yah04lssq46wk85) and I stumbled upon this lone huge male Ibex grazing peacefully.
We often encountered lots of Ibexes and other wildlife while hiking in the area, but never had we met one that big and that close.
I love how this shot captures this glimpse of connection between him and us, moments before we just went on his own business.. grazing.
I hope this made you travel a bit and feel how we are all connected, humans, living creatures, nature. Oneness
If you would like the see other pictures of this ibex, or a video of the environment or even another subject, please let me know.
