Night in Volterra, a photo from Pisa, Tuscany

Photographer's Note

"At night, Volterra is pretty quiet. As they have for generations, Volterrans young and old stroll during the cool of early evening. Join in, or head to an enoteca for a glass of Tuscan wine." - Rick Steves about his favorite small town in Italy.

Hello Daniel,
The evening mood is quite palpable in this well realised night shot. The tiled pavement seems to be glistening, perhaps after some recent rain. It helps create a lovely long perspective along this enticing street where it must be good to stroll and browse the shop windows.

Hello Daniel,
The evening mood is really well conveyed by the photo. The street lights add a nice and warm glow to the walls and the people strolling around looking at the still open shops create a calm mood. Well captured with good sharpness.

Hello Daniel,

There is an inviting ambience about your photograph; I feel a desire to join the family group gazing in the shop window. I think the lamp is is guiding beneath the familiar security of flags.
Though the pavement tiles seem wet, there is no suggestion of macs, or umbrellas, so I guess the night is warm and welcoming.
A very well composed and informative night shot.

Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Hello Daniel,
Beautifully managed the light from the shining lamp-post, and there is a contrast to the dark part down the alley and also gave wonderful sight of the flags color's.
Fine night scene, my cong.'s.

Great picture with a lovely evening atmosphere. Despite the difficult light conditions, a technical high quality picture. I like the warm colours of the artificial light and the scene with these people looking for some interesting souvenirs.
Excellent picture

Bonjour Daniel,

J'aime beaucoup ce genre de photos de nuit dans des espaces étroits. Belle prise car les passants sont tous arrêtés devant un espace lumineux. Bel effet de profondeur.

Amicalement

Hi Daniel,
This alley fits well on the vertical format. Colourful details look nicely saturated and contrasty on night lights. People look quite relaxed, no hurry to go anywhere. Was this handheld, I guess there was no support for the camera in the middle of the street?

Ciao Daniel
hai utilizzato al meglio le luci artificiali e i colori delle bandiere per ottenere una bella foto in notturna di questa antica città.
Saluti

Hi Daniel,
amazing effect: I think the lighting made the trick. It is literally and figuratively a highlight here. I like how it illuminates the scene with people enjoying the evening stroll among souvenir shops. The flags add even more colors.
Very well balanced exposure, beautiful result!

Sorry for being late to answer to your kind words, Daniel.
Of course, night shots are quite attractive as they show locations with more subtle tones and prove the talent of photographers to overcome difficulties...your picture excels in those two fields! Cheers. Robert

Hello Daniel

Great low light shot - well focused and grain free - always a problem in low light but the colours here and the exposure are perfect. Great job!

Have a good day.

Cheers
