Very good composition of a marvelous place. I know it well, luckily. The pink flowers give a magic touch, colors and sharpness are good as well. Compliments, Gianpaolo. Ciao ciao

Amazing shot!

The diagonal colourful stripe of flowers that is paralel to the stripe of forest creates a beautiful photo.

Well done and thanks for sharing!

Very nice landscape work. The flora in the foreground provide an engaging element that works well with the distant scene. A small detail but the clouds on the right are slightly bleached from overexposure. Best regards, Lamar

a wondeful scenery, really, Gianpaolo, that you rendered with greatness in colors and shades, really natural tones, and good light, the piece of fence should go, but will not alter my rating. Jacline

what a wonderful shot. It makes me wish to be there from bottom of my heart.Such a magnificent combination of nature such as mountain , Trees and wild flowers plus nice sky which is really bonus here. I think the only way to improve this beautiful shot would be some little more shadows to the mountain. Thanks

Photo is great. However the colors are not clear enough. I think some saturation and contrast processing should have been applied. Thus, flowers and the mountain's lightening part might have been more attractive.

Beautiful composition with a nice diagonal feature to the rising hillside reemphasized with the foreground flowers on a similar diagonal. You have a fence or something in the bottom right that I would probably remove before I would consider printing this photo. That fence may have been the reason why you didn't go a little wider to get more of the flowers in frame on the right side, which is understandable. It would be more impressive if you could revisit this place with some more dramatic lighting.

Hi Gianpaolo, very good shot, I love the Fassa's valley and you've catched well. I'm not sure about the light, because isn't uniform and this penalize the colors in the foreground. However, is beautiful how the soft light work with the mountain in the middle, really beautiful. Where is the point of view? I don't understand what mountain is. Best regards, Enrico

Hi Gianpaolo! This is an extraordinary landscape! The colors are very beautiful and also the composition of the image results good! I think that you would have had to exclude the thread (perhaps line electric...) visible in low right corner of the picture; besides I don't like so much the road (??) visible among the flowers. However an excellent shot!
Best regards, Danilo

Wow, and your series continues! Beautiful light, again. These are the Dolomites, right? Perfectly framed. Foreground flowers give nice sense of perspective.

Beautiful shot. What a powerful set of peaks in that shot. If I had to be nitpicking and had to critique I'd say... 1)Crop out or retouch the powerlines in the lower right corner/grass 2) Crop in from the left the last stalk of flowers that is on the left edge of the frame. Both are distracting and just teetering on the edge. But in any case very small matters to fix or retouch. Overall a beautiful location and good exposure. Luc
