Another view of Chianti. Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another view of Chianti.
Photo taken from the terrace of Galestro (a villa in the field "It Caggio").
"Il Caggio" is a small hamlet belonging to the group restored Mazzei.
The place is sublime. The beauty, calm and well-being will prevail all around ...
The group Mazzei realizes among the best chianti whose Castello di Fonterutoli and Siepi.
Fonterutoli was already known by the Etruscans, then named in Roman times as "Fons Rutolae" and "Fons Rutilant", it was regarded as a place of passage and stop for passengers traveling between Florence and Siena.
Do not hesitate to make a stop at Fonterutoli which lies between Siena and therefore Castellina in Chianti.

Hi Pierre. I would love to visit Tuscany as it looks superbly photogenic. I like your choice of viewpoint but, despite your having done some work on the image, there's still a lot of detail left in the blocked shadows and the image remains a bit 'flat'. A 0.6 hard ND filter would have helped even out the exposure and enabled you to improve what is otherwise a fine image. Regards, Paul.

Salut Pierre,
Ta photo a un superbe potentiel.
J'ai fait ce que j'ai pu avec la version postée mais on peut faire mieux avec l'originale!
Tu en penses quoi?
Amitiés
Marc
