For this shot I waited for the golden light of the sun enlighten and dye whole landscape, the mist rising from the earth helped give mystical halo at the clickEquipment
Nikon D7100, Nikkor 24-70 f/2.8, hands freeInspiration
During a few days' holiday in the Val d'Orcia I planned photographic destinations that I could not miss it, this was one of those. I then went up early to take the essence that the colors of dawn imagined give to this beautiful view. I arrived it was still dark, I looked for the right angle, placing the equipment and started shooting. As the sunlight begin to rise, the landscape took shape and was tinged with magnificent hues. I almost moved by the beauty of the show to which I was witnessing and photographing!Editing
