Roots and streams
As dusk settles over the French Pyrenees, spectacular sunset light illuminates the Pic du Midi d'Ossau, this iconic rocky pyramid near the Spanish border. Its distinctive triangular silhouette is perfectly reflected in the calm waters of one of the Ayous lakes, while ancient gnarled roots bleached by the sun stand in the foreground. I chose them as they look like they morph into the small streams that meander toward the lake. This autumn hike ended with a freezing bivouac, and we met a small frog which was getting ready for winter in the water.
