This picture shows a small, old village with stone houses stuck against a green hillside. A narrow road winds past the houses, with a few cars on it, and lush vegetation such as trees, bushes and creepers grows everywhere. At the top are ruins of an old castle, and the sky is blue with some clouds. Small details are the ivy on the walls, the terraces with gardens and the rocky ground that gives the village a robust look.
I was walking near Roisey and came across this view. The contrast between the old stone buildings and vibrant nature immediately drew me in - it felt like a hidden gem in the French countryside, and I wanted to capture it before the light changed.
The photo evokes a tranquil, timeless atmosphere, as if going back for a moment to a simpler life in the countryside. It is peaceful and adventurous at the same time, with that sense of discovery in the hills.
The composition focuses on the road as the guiding line, to draw the eye to the houses.
This piece brings a piece of authentic France into your home, perfect for a living room or study where you want to relax. The green and earthy colour palette goes well with natural interiors, and it brings a sense of space and history to the wall.
