-about the shot-
I took this picture during a photographic weekend spent with friends on the Giau Pass, in the Dolomites.
Once we arrived at our accommodation, we explored the area and we could not notice the beautiful meadow with forest adjacent to the structure with Monte Pelmo in the background.
After an excellent dinner we decided to go out to shoot, there was a lot of fog and at some point it started to get up.
The atmosphere was stunning, I used these 15 minutes to try some long exposures.

-about the place-
Mount Pelmo is 3.169 m high and separates Val di Zoldo from the Boite valley.
The mountain has a particular shape since it has two main summits which are Pelmo to the north, and Pelmetto to the south 2990m. The mountain’s eastern face is very characteristic where the wide glacial cirque looks like a chair, and this is why it is locally called “el Caregon del Padreterno” (God’s Throne).
At its base there are three mountain huts: Rifugio Venezia-Alba Maria De Luca 1.947m to the east, Rifugio Città di Fiume 1.918 m on the north-west and Rifugio Passo Staulanza 1.766 m to the west.
Mount Pelmo is also famous paleontologically speaking: at its base, at an altitude of 2.050 m, not far from Rifugio Staulanza, a stone with dinosaur footprints was found.
