Good evening, Christian!
Perfectly good picture. I do not love nature? photos, but it is caught. technically perfectly good. The sheep in the foreground sharp and mysterious fog. We are not like sheep to be :-) I hate the fog and cold. Moreover, in the end and eat it.
Congratulations.
Csaba

Ciao Christian,
gran colpo d'occhio e grande tecnica. L'inclusione delle pecore in primo piano enfatizza il susseguirsi dei piani sfalsati che si perdono nella nebbia.
Ottima la scelta del medio tele.

Buon WE

Hi Chrisitian,

Excellent photograph of this beautiful location! I like the way you have used telephoto lens for cropping & framing the elements very well. Metering works very well with excellent exposure.

Ciao Christian!!

Come va??
Tu crei dolcissimi capolavori usando l'atmosfera della nebbia!
Qui hai un lungo paesaggio con un bellissimo primo piano.

Ciao!!

Hi Christian,
wieder ein echtes Juwel, das du hier präsentierst! Die Schafe und der dichte Nebel kreieren wirklich eine außergewöhnliche Atmosphäre. Schöne diagonale Linie des Hügels im Vordergrund, ein wirklich sehr gelungenes Bild!

Viele Grüße
Mark

Hello Christian,
Congratulations on a remarkable pastoral image, capturing the layers of mist between the folds of the hills in a fine composition of opposing diagonals behind the FG sheep.
Regards,
Mary

Hi Christian,

Absolutely beautiful shot with superb depth and sharpness. Sheeps in the foregound, and layers of fog across valleys gives this composition another edge.

Great work.

Regards,
Pratim

Hello Christian,

yes, I have been to Siena, although at that time it was scorching hot summer...very beautiful and idyllic-looking image, I really would not tell that this is country around Siena...I just remember it so differently...

Take care, Ivana

Hi Christian,
Grear scenery, very well seen and captured. Perfect layout, nice soft colors and great impression. Th misty background leaves the effect of a japanese ink painting.
TFS and best regards

Ciao caro Christian,
tu sei il fotografo delle nebbie. Fotografare la nebbia è sempre difficile, perchè bisogna catturare anche l'effetto della dissolvenza e della trasparenza, come fai tu in modo eccellente. Complimenti per questa piacevole immagine, che conferma tutta la tua grande esperienza.
Ciao, buona serata!
Paolo

Dear Christian,

You captured the nice scenery with great DOF. I love the sheep in front and nice hills and clouds at the BG.
Made me feeling jealous of these sheep:) so relaxed eating their breakfast in such an stunning area!

Hello Christian,

I've just discovered your photo gallery. I do like your pics and their composition, especially those from Italy. I love landscapes in Tuscany. The composition here is really great, sheeps and the layers of hills covered with mist and a small house in the background. A scene like from an old historical movie.
greets from Georgia,
Emilia
