Buongiorno Cefalu Photo

Photographer’s Note

A nice morning walk along the beach west of Cefalu gave me the opportunity to depict this beauty of Sicily in a gentle light. I had been walking with naked feet along the shoreline, a feeling I hadn't had for ages, and on finding this spot I couldn't resist this view, that has been captured by many painters and photographers before from different angles and with lots of different lighting.
A true gem, this city is really worth a visit and is a real photographers paradise! But not during the summer, unless you love extreme heat and tourist masses!

Bravissimo Renè! E' una veduta bellissima, con un ottimo primo piano, bella luce, ben composto.

Ecco la foto che non sono mai riuscito a scattare...2 volte ci sono stato e 2 volte con la pioggia...
Questo era il pov più bello, complimenti Renè, un ottimo lavoro, colori vivi e magnifici, la luce e le ombre in primo piano lo rendono un vero capolavoro.
Note: un film italiano del 2005 "Il regista di matrimoni" riprende una vista di questo punto.
Buona giornata
Alessandro
