France Unnamed buron
A buron is a stone building, roofed with slate or stone tiles, found in the “mountains”—high-altitude pastures owned and used seasonally by valley farmers in the Cantal, Aubrac, Cézallier, Margeride, and Mont Dore mountain ranges. Many have been converted into restaurants today and welcome hikers and tourists, but others are still inhabited.
This particular set of burons has no name, and is still habited.

Photography Tips
Aim for golden hour, especially sunrise, to get a beautiful light on the burons. Snow makes it magical in winter and very peaceful, while summer will bring more vivid colors.
