Before earthquake of 2016

by GIULIO57

July 2014. PENTAX K20 D and PENTAX Lens 18-55 set at 18 mm. Tripod. Manual focusing and exposure. See EXIF. Five pics merged in Affinity. I find this sw very interesting.
I hope you don’t find all these pics boring. Thx to Dromfit for BBC article…even if they could have published more appealing pictures and not those flat that don’t make justice of that enchanted place.
Two years later eathquake changed everything and everyone. It was oct. 30th, 2016.

A riot of colour in a great composition - I don't think the label "boring" could be applied to your images!

They are also part of documenting recent history, something we often overlook.

It has been a real trouble for peoples and economy of that area. In 1997 I was close to that area for a meeting ( Company I worked with). It was September. In the night a big earthquake. From that moment and in following years started a long series of earthquakes.... Since 2016!!!! In these last years many houses have been restored but It Will take a long time to keep everything and everyone safe.
