I already took this a few months ago but only now decided to process and upload it. Shot on the other side of this field. Up on the hill on the right side also this church can be seen. In the lower right is my doggy who got in the frame unintentionally. :) The hill out there in the distance is called Lisca which is a popular hiking destination. And if you see any strangely coloured pixels in the sky, those are paragliders which launch from Lisca and glide to the valley below. There were close to 20 of them in the sky when I photographed this but they got reduced to single pixels in the final version of the photo. On a technical note, this is a stich made out of 15 individual photos taken with my old Canon A80 compact.

15 photos? Wow..no wonder the poor paragliders got edged out of the pic. Thanks for the tour of the area with your links. I always like being refreshed, and well, being the lazy sort that I am, I like it when people take the time to put in links so I don't have to go digging around..lol...I do it myself....very nicely composed and presented, Miran :)

All them dogs are the best in getting into the pics - unintentionally apparently !!!!
Have I had not the case most of the times ?! LOL
Luckily, the dogs [specifically as cute and elegant as the one here] can only add to the overall quality of the image which would be rated HIGH even without the doggie ! LOL

A most lovely picture composed with the same expertise as all of your uploads. I particuarly like this one as it draws the viewer right in and along that road. I would like to climb the hill :) but not to paraglide.
The dog adds the finishing touch.
It is now in my favourites :)

And I quote; "this is a stich made out of 15 individual photos ... ."

Wow. Excellent work.

I actually think the presence of your 'friend' is the crowning touch to your image here.

There are some wonderful leading lines in this visual offering of yours. You most certainly succeeded in drawing this viewer into this shot. I enjoy the simplicity of this one and the natural colours.

Caveats? Not sure if this is a result of the program used to make this composite ... and no real slight, make no mistake (I think I am trying to show off a bit ;o) ) ... perhaps ... perhaps, some overuse of sharpening?

Can't tell if there are some artifacts from the improbable task you undertook in stitching the number of images that you have or if it is from some post-sweetening.

That aside ... I would add that full-size view is a must. Technical accomplishments aside ... this is a gorgeous vista.

Hmm ... feel like taking a walk? Let's go. :o)
