This is one of the many view we can find while going from Siena to Firenze in the Tuscany region.

Located in central Italy, the territory of Tuscany is characterized by mountains in the East and north, among them the Alpi Apuane, rich of the renowned white marble, and wide hilly areas throughout the central part, covered with olive plantations, vineyards and sunflowers, while the plain territories along the coast, Versilia and Maremma, once unhealthy and marshy, were reclaimed in the early 20th century and offer now landscapes of great natural beauty. The very large plain called Valdarno, going from Florence to the mouth of the Arno river.

Hello Christian,

A sensational image of the Tuscan Valley, and framed perfectly. What lovely rolling hills! I love this image. I am especially interested in your allusion to Valdarno, because the Balze Rocks are in this area.
Warm regards,

Bulent

Hello Christian,

Your frame is very attractive since its thumbnail. I like green tones all over frame and grainy feeling. Typical, old Italian architecture, trees and ridges are completes your beautiful scene. Congratulations.

Best Regards,

Hi Christian. You have used the long focal length to pick out some wonderful detail of this landscape. Good sharpness and colours. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

One of my favorite colour on this beautiful landscape, a wonderful place for visit. Very well presented picture Christian, i like it alot.

Hola Christian,

Me gusta mucho este paisaje. Tiene bastante parecido a las escenas de la pelicula Gladiator. Los pinos son muy elegantes y diferentes de los pinos que tenemos en Canada. Realmente me gustan mucho mas los que veo en la foto. La foto esta bien compuesta. Tiene un sujeto interesante con buen balance de colores y luz. Otra cosa interesante son las pacas de paja, son cuadradas y no redondas. Gracias por compartir Christian.

Hi Christian, great shot you made i love the softness of colors and textures.
Best regards

Ciao Christian, un posto dove andare a vivere! E' una cartolina sulla toscana, avrei forse lavorato un po' sui livelli per esaltare il colore. L'unico appunto è la cornice, così verdina non mi piace, spegne la foto.
Sabrina

Hi Christian, even if the frame is not the best, the image is good and over all the country house is wonderful, well seen and done, compliments.

Bonsoir Christian
Joli point de vue dominant.
L'avant plan est bien garni par la maison entourée de cyprès.
Je pense qu'un fin encadrement blanc permet de mieux faire ressortir l'environnement vert de la campagne vallonée.
Cordialement.

Hi Chris,

this really is a typical Tuscan icon! I love that kind of homes! Excellent composition!

Very well done!

Gio

Hi Christian
Wonderful POV and composition. I like so much the pastel colours and how you framed it.
Great photojob
Aires

Hey Christian,
A lovely shot of Tuscany's magnificent landscape. I like your composition with that house sitting on top of the hill overlooking the rolling hills. Excellent colors & sharpness. Congratulations!!! TFS
Greetings,
Natasha

Ciao Christian!
TIpica campagna toscana...queste colline sono stupende, poverino chi vive in quella casa...chissà che solitudine ?!?! :D
Bella foto, complimenti!

Alessandro

wonderful picture
Karl

Classic tuscan countryside, I love the simple beauty, and also the tight crop, the green frame does not kill the shot, but gives it a painful blow to the kneecaps.

Hello Christian,

fantastic landscape shot from Italy with an excellent composition and very good colors.Well done fotojob.

With regards from Luxembourg

Jean-Claude

Ciao Christian, affascinante vista delle colline Toscane, magnifico il grande casolare circondato dai cipressi, meravigliose le doldi ondulazioni del panorama di sfondo, bravo, ciao Silvio

Ciao Christian,
Magnificent photo of this farm of the Val d' Orcia.
I like the very sharpen zoom on the house and the background in very attractive tints with this out of focus.
A very beautiful realization.
Congratulations
Diane

Wow, excellent composition and light here! Regards, Doug

Christian,
a classic view of the tuscan landscape. The tight crop with the compression effect of the zoom gives a nice impression of the tight framing. Speaking of framing, the green frame is to heavy and doesn't contribute to the presetation of the otherwise great image.
Peter

bonjour Christian
le cadrage est tres bon, le format carré convient bien
mais
la couleur du cadre est affreuse, et il manque un peu de peps au couleurs et à la compo

ciao
