Last day in Tuscany. I did an early morning trip around the valley and shot at some spots we haven’t been in the early hours. During the day we went to San Galgano, an old monastery ruin. It was closed bacause of a marriage in the building. In the evening we went for a […]
This day we did just some stuff in Bagno Vignoni and Pienza and had a look at some of the places we have visited the days before. So, not a lot to show here… Daytrip Last update: 31st May, 2017, 8:40 PM
Early morning I wanted to go for a shooting at Agriturismo Palazzo Conti and the area around there. That part is rarely seen on any pictures on the net but is really a nice location to shoot. The evening was planned to go for another shooting at Agriturismo Baccoleno. This time from the hill near the […]
On day 7 we did a short ride to La Foce to see the ZigZag Cypress-Way of Podere Casanova. Later the day we did another trip to Radicofani and later the day another attempt for the chapel Cappella di Vitaleta. Daytrip Last update: 31st May, 2017, 11:54 AM
On Saturday we did a daytrip to Siena which we missed in 2016. On the way to Siena we saw several marshals at street-crossings wondering what that could be for. In Buonconvento there were also a lot of audience at the street through the village. There we go, a sign told us: Mille Miglia 2017. […]
On the fifth day we did not travel around that much, instead we spent the day in Pienza and did relax a bit. Early morning we tried again at Podere Belvedere to grab some misty morning hours, but, without luck. Although, the sunrise was quite good. Around lunchtime we had a look at the […]
On day 4 we decided to run an early session at Agriturismo Terrapille for some morning shots. Having explored the area on day 3 already we knew where we wanted to go. Above shot was done with wide angle lens but main shots where using short tele-lens (I used the 90mm Voigtländer on the D800). […]
Third day we decided to go to Montepulciano and spend the day there. In the morning I woke up quite early and did one round of shots close to the farmhouse. Later the day we tried Agriturismo Terrapille but the last location chosen did not work for me. So, not a lot of good […]
On the second day, I wanted to concentrate mainly on the previously defined locations. Therefore, we went to the first location of my list. Before sunrise we reached the location to shoot Podere Belvedere where all photographers meet at that time (about 10 were there or arrived later). Shortly before sunrise we went to the […]
After 1575 km we reached our destination, a farmhouse called Bonellino Vecchio, very late at 9pm. But, the next morning really made it up for such a long ride… I woke up quite early and had a first view into the valley from farmhouse’s garden. We definitely have chosen the right location for the stay. […]
