GeoTones

by GIULIO57

Not a masterpiece. For sure!...but at that moment green tones and yellow dots mixed together with a sharp and hazy light caught my attention. Also an interesting game between lines, I thought! Sheeps did the rest. I needed living subjects filling compo. Camera on tripod. No filters. I used 1/200s and high ISO 400 because a strong and nasty wind was blowing. That wind and those moments of sharp-light(at that hour of the day in spring) are a fingerprint of this place known as “area of calanchi” close to Asciano e going toward Monte Oliveto Maggiore Abbey-Tuscany-Italy. Hope u like it

Not a masterpiece? Its damn well close to one Giulio. Its a wonderful Tuscan landscape. I love the careful way you've arranged the composition to bring out the fine patterns.

Wow.

As David says I do think this is pretty close to being a masterpiece. It is stunning.

A finely crafted and quietly elegant Tuscan landscape to glide into. Pleasing interlocking form, with inviting hues and textures

Bravo

Really well composed... Great lines and intersections... Sheep far distance a great counterpoint to the symmetry... Really nice...

All the above and ----A remarkable image that would be at home on a museum wall. Many things combined to produce this singular work. Colors are vibrant. The geometrics and chosen POV brilliant. Even the tree positioned itself, decades ago, for your "Capolavoro" effort. Bravo! --- thanks - Tony

What a beautiful place to live.
The sheep do help but I think the solitary tree is even more valuable. It stops the eye from sliding off the picture and redirects to those wonderful patterns.
Thank you for sharing it.

THX Malc....sometimesI suppose that to take pictures is the only way to freeze "realm of reality"when stll alive. We do take always piccies of what"willsurely die in the next or far future"
