Spring floodings in Brière Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another view of the Marsh of Brière, in France. This time, the photo was made during the annual floodings in spring. These floodings are a natural process allowing the regeneration of the marsh. The Black and White is quite appropriate to render the local atmosphere (Brière is also locally called the "black marsh", as opposed to the "white marsh", a maritime salt marsh located only some kilometers away, near the medieval city of Guerande).

Xavier,
Nice shot here! Good POV and composition. I only would have tried to increase the contrast.
Well done and welcome on board!

Hi Xavier! I like the subject, and it seems perfectly exposed for the sky. You barely see the boats, though - I think you could improve on this with some PP. Here's my try...
