Pretty sunset on the hills of Bologna.
Marvelous view from Cresta di Gallo in the Regional Park of the High Modenese Apennines, my favorite 😍
Natural beauty. My kind of beauty. Shot in the Regional Park of the Vena del Gesso Romagnola, about an hour south-east from Bologna.
Approaching the peak of Mount Ventasso (1727m) in the Reggiano Apennines - famous, as the name implies, for the strong winds that may blow at the top (not the case last Sunday when I was there).
The spellbinding Pietra di Bismantova in the Reggiano Apennines, inside the National Park of the Appennino Tosco-Emiliano. Between 15 and 20 million years old, it emerges above the hilly countryside as an isolated spur with very steep walls, reaching a height of 1047m. It was mentioned even by Dante in the Divine Comedy. It has a unique energy to it. You can reach the top in about 20 minutes from the (crowded) parking lot.
“Italy, and the spring and first love all together should suffice to make the gloomiest person happy.” (Bertrand Russell)
