Tuscany (Jun 26, 2004)

Shot this summer in our Tuscany trip. We stopped at a medieval Abbey on the top of a hill near Siena. The landscape around the Abbey was magnificent, with slow rolling hills and rural houses connected by small roads flanked by trees. We stayed there one hour or so, absorbing the peace and the silence of the place.

I’ve always been a fan of B&W, and this image just re-enforces that. Beautiful shot, Massimo.

The color was nice too, but it didn’t have the same punch. When I converted the photo into B/W I mixed the color channels enhancing the reds and depressing the blues (this is equivalent to using a red filter). As a result I managed to bring out more details in the clouds texture which were lost in the original color image.

Wow, fabulous sky. But what I like most about this picture is the contrast between the buildings and trees and the rest of the sky.
