Description

Personal Website      Facebook

Shot taken in front of the southern side of the world famous Vajolet Towers, South Tyrol Dolomites, one of my favorite places in the Alps, if not the absolute favorite. 

The moment of the day is the transition between the blue hour and the night, basically when the stars are appearing in the sky, or, at least, when the camera begins to see the stars (under this aspect our cameras while working at high ISO are much more sensitive than the human eye).
In the upper right corner is visible the Andromeda Galaxy.

The towers benefit here of a light evidently still present in the atmosphere from the west, due to the sun below the horizon, a light that my eyes could no longer see.
I opted for a black and white just to make the most from this almost "otherworldly" atmosphere.

Wow, that is breathtakingly beautiful! The mountain formations do indeed look like a castle fortress - it's 'towers' reach for and touch the sky. Love the blanket of stars that are in the night sky. The B&W tones really showcase all the details of the beautiful scenery. Very well captured and done!
