Light...and impressionism
The light is extraordinary here. Being on the hilltop, the setting sun illuminates the buildings' faces, and sends a purple sheen over the valley. This experience has really helped me understand and appreciate the impressionists' work even more than before: the same view is always different, and must be captured instantly because it changes so quickly. The problem is, even if I were able to capture the colors, you wouldn't believe them to be real!

Wow
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photography.I will look at these pictures again. Wish I could paint one!
ReplyDeleteOMG! Amazing, where's my bag full of adjectives? I need more! Is it just me or does the sky look more beautiful in Italy? There's certainly nothing like that in Atlanta. ENJOY it while you can!!
ReplyDeleteIt was really hard to limit the pictures I shared, that's for sure! That said, I think it's more a question of the hilltop location -- we have views from every direction in the city. It's hard not to be impressed by the changes and the beauty that we're surrounded by!
