The iconic Oia village (Santorini island, Greece) is famous for its cliff-hugging architecture and sunset views. The village is filled with people during sunset; most of the visitors leave shortly after sunset to return to their cruise ships. I used a 3-stop graduated ND filter to balance the strong contrast of bright and shadow areas.

Val d’Orcia – Toscana, IT.

Castelos medievais, colinas ensolaradas, cidades isoladas, quintas encantadoras e casas rurais isoladas, avenidas de ciprestes, fileiras de vinhas, olivais e campos dourados de trigo são apenas alguns dos elementos das paisagens fantásticas e harmoniosas de Val d’Orcia. Junto com Chianti, é um dos dois destinos turísticos mais populares da Toscana, tanto para visitantes do exterior, quanto para italianos que visitam Toscana.

Medieval castles, sunny rolling hills, isolated hilltop towns, charming farmhouses and isolated rural homes, avenues of cypresses, rows of vineyards, olive groves, and golden wheat fields are just some of the elements of the fantastic and harmonious landscapes of Val d’Orcia. Along with Chianti, is rightly one of the two most popular tourism destinations in Tuscany for both visitors from abroad and Italians visiting Tuscany.
