I took this picture last autumn, while on a holiday trip in “Val di Taro”, a region of Italy nearby Liguria and Tuscany. I was outside walking in a wood nearby my hotel, and forgot about the time. All suddenly the sun went down and created for me this wonderful picture, which I promptly took with my digital camera, which I always carry it with me.
I’m really pleased about it and I consider one of my best pictures. I hope you’ll agree

Today decided to take a small walk in a public garden nearby, since was a very good day, sunny and warm considering the autumnal season. I started to look around me, the nature and its small details, so I decided to take some closeup pictures of small plants, like the ivy and the pine cone below:


nowadays people doesn’t seem to be interested anymore in looking at the natureworks, at our world. I find this still a very important and also very relaxing activity to do while walking outside.

The day is sunny, beautiful, already from the morning. The air is fresh, clear. The sky is deep blue and not a single cloud on sight: a climate particularly good considering that recently we got used to semi-tropical heat here in Italy…!
So we decided to take a day off, to explore some mountains nearby. Once again our starting point was “Passo della Cappelletta”, that connects Emilia Romagna with Liguria.

Once we arrived there, the view was incredible… I have no words to describe it, and I hope that the photos can at least give you a vague idea of what beautiful day it was. We took the official path that leads to Mount Gottero, even if we didn’t manage to reach the top because of time constraints.

Of course the cows aren’t missing even this time. They add a “bavarian” touch to the landscape. If I didn’t know, I could even be thinking to be really in Austria or Bavary. We even met another group of escursionists during our trip, very unusual for those places.

Just before heading back home I have time to take some funny pictures… a really weird shaped tree. It seems almost an enormous mouth, with a nose!
