Unusual composition, Giulio. I love these Tuscan landscapes. The top half looks full of possibilities for other pictures.
Best wishes,

Andrew

I knew that it was one of yours. A delightful shot. Andrew is right you can have another photo out of this using the upper part.

You don't post many images Giulio, but when you do they are instantly recognisable. Like a fingerprint, they cannot belong to anyone else.

This one is magical, superbly composed and as always colour is the king.

I'd decided what I was going to say Giulio and then I saw that David had said it for me!
