Valensole’s Stunning Lavender Fields

Samir Belhamra shows us gorgeous rows of lavender at night.

By Moss & Fog1 min read
Rows of lavender stretching across the plateau of Valensole in Provence, France, the fields turning the landscape into a study in blue-purple geometry — a place that has become one of Europe’s most-photographed agricultural landscapes because nothing about it looks accidental

We imagine these gorgeous lavender fields smell as lovely as they look.

Self-taught photographer Samir Belhamra show his skill in these beautiful and inspiring photos of French lavender fields at night.

Taken in Valensole in Southern France, we see beautifully even rows of lavender, richly purple against a starry night sky.

A fading sunset and distant tree give the impressive scene scale. A peaceful, zen place if we’ve ever seen one. Via DesignYouTrust:
