I recently went on a bike ride from Sarcelles to Goussainville with my camera and new Peak Design tripod. The goal was simple: ride through urban areas and take pictures of nature thriving in the city.

The ride started in Sarcelles. The streets had a mix of charming urban scenes and bursts of greenery. I stopped regularly to take photos.

In Goussainville, the contrast between urban structures and spontaneous patches of nature made for compelling images. The setting sun cast a warm light, creating a peaceful mood.

The new tripod was a great help, keeping the shots sharp and stable. It was especially useful as the sun went down and the light got dimmer.

One photo that stood out to me was of a quiet street where the sunset light filtered through leaves, making a calm, dappled pattern on the cobblestones. It represented how nature and cities can coexist peacefully.

This small trip combined a little adventure with photography. The result was a series of images showing the quiet beauty of nature in urban places, captured in the soft light of the sunset.
