21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Lost Into The Mist

I took this photograph in November 2022 in South Of France during a very cold and misty morning. We were closed to 0°C, my hands were shaking and I was seeing almost nothing in front of me. Suddenly a wild boar run cross the field followed by seven others. It was like a ghost, I barely saw him and the atmosphere was very special. I tried to transliterate as much as I can what I felt through this pic by putting th shutter speed at 1/5 sec which created effect of cave painting.
