Mont Préneley, beech forest near Glux-en-Glenne.
Morvan Regional Nature Park.
Photo taken in spring, when the soft green vegetation contrasts best with the carpet of russet leaves.
Mont Préneley and the sources of the Yonne are a French nature site that was listed in 1999.
This photo is part of a commission to photograph listed sites in France.
France's policy on classified and listed sites aims to preserve areas whose exceptional character justifies national protection. This protection, established by the laws of 1906 and 1930, extends to places of general scenic, artistic, historical, scientific or legendary interest.
This image was originally produced on 4.5 x 6 cm film and has since been digitised.
