Description
Val d'Orcia-TuscanyThe Val d’Orcia, or Valdorcia, is a region of Tuscany, central Italy, which extends from the hills south of Siena to Monte Amiata. It is characterised by gentle, carefully cultivated hills occasionally broken by gullies and by picturesque towns and villages such as Pienza (rebuilt as an “ideal town” in the 15th century under the patronage of Pope Pius II), Radicofani (home to the notorious brigand-hero Ghino di Tacco) and Montalcino (the Brunello di Montalcino is counted among the most prestigious of Italian wines). It is a landscape which has become familiar through its depiction in works of art from the Renaissance painting to the modern photograph.

Hi, there! Really impressed with this photo, and I was wondering if I could use this as a cover image for one of my songs. I am an aspiring electronic musician, with channels both on the Youtube and Soundcloud platforms. You can access my channels via the links in my bio, or just search the name 'Ronin' on YouTube or Soundcloud. In the song description, I will include links to both your profile here on DeviantArt and to this particular photo. Again, great picture, and thank you for your patience.

I love the sweeping zig-zag of the lines in this, drawing the eye ever deeper into the image. There just always seems to be a bit more to see in all the peacefulness of this.

Even before reading the title, I thought "this is just magical." Been to Tuscany a long time ago but remember how enchantingly beautiful it was (and still is).
