Oropa's Sanctuary: the dome of the New Basilica

*******************************************************

The Oropa's Sanctuary stands at the head of the woods and meadows of the Oropa Valley basin.

The Reserve develops within Oropa Basin from an altitude of 814 meters to the summit of the surrounding mountains reaching the 2,400 meters above sea level. The slopes of Mt. Mucrone, Mt. Camino and Mt. Rosso are covered in their highest stretches with large grasslands consisting of nards, shrub formations with Green Alder and Rhododendron.
The area of the Sanctuary and Holy Mountain is surrounded by forest formations dominated by Beech tree usually mixed with Sycamore Maple and Ash tree at lower altitudes and with Golden Chain tree and Mountain Ash at higher altitudes.

Bonjour Daniela,
Merci pour ce beau témoignage d'une basilique que je connais pas... décidément en Italie, les trésors sont infinis.
Belle harmonie de couleur malgré la brume automnale.
Cordialement,
Eric /.

Hi Daniela,
excellent composition, with lovely light and colours... the only bad point is the tilt, you can see it on the dome...

Hi Daniela,
The church seems to be rotated a little to the left, waht's a bit disturbing, but anyway, it's very pleasant shot. I like colours and lightmood. Well done.

Thanks,
Marek

A nice composition. Good light and the fog give to the picture a nice touch. Really well done...

Une belle image bien composée avec des couleurs magnifiques. Il me semble qu'il aurait été préférable de faire la mise au point sur le dôme.
Amicalement

Bonjour Daniela,
Cette photo est vraiment digne d'une carte postale.

La forêt (et ses couleurs) qui entoure "Oropa's Sanctuary" est magnifique sur cette photo. La prise de vue est géniale.

Félicitation pour cette photo réussie.
