Nature Photography
Louise Sayers
I am a photographer living in the Cévennes, a remote and rugged region of Southern France. It is a place of sweet chestnut and ancient beech forests, gorges of limestone, granite outcrops and waterfalls, valleys of perfumed heather and olive trees. My photographs are inspired by these dramatic landscapes and infused with nature’s rich colour palette.
I hope to reveal moments of quiet drama - speckles of sunlight on a single flower, or perhaps the parting of clouds after a rain storm. Seeing these shifts of light and deepening shadows, hearing a rustle of leaves in the wind, instils a feeling of connection and well-being.
This is what I aim to capture in my photos.
Stories of the Cévennes
Inspired by the changing seasons I decided to write some stories of life in the Cévennes, so I wrote a monthly journal for a year. And still I find I have more to say. So here they are and more besides…
