[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Since 1993, Sassi have been declared UNESCO World Heritage. They are symbol of a peasant life but also a wonderful example of Urban Architecture, in fact all the houses are carved into the calcareous rock.

This chaos is beautiful.
Lak of details, flat sky and DOF makes it painting alike.

Congratulations.

Lovely shot. I like your composition, the angle from right down to left, it really accentuates the hill that the houses are on.

What a beautiful view Gigi,I know the famous "Sassi" of Matera and its usefulness, but I never can see it...
It has a fantastic colour and very nice sharpness.
Well done

Hello Luigi sembra una cartolina. ma no sapeva che il paese e stato costruitto nella rocce.

Very nice view of this beautiful city. We went there on our vacation this past October and I was fascinated by this city. We walked all over and could not get enough of it. It is however not a very photogenic place because of the dullness of the colours and the chaotic architecture. I think you did well here and give a very good testimony of this beautiful city. Excellent!

P.S. I had missed this picture when you first published it (for some obscure reasons) and just came across it and could not resist leaving you a comment. I guess "better late than never".

Ciao Luigi !!

Lovely place...very interesting architecture and arrangement of cottages..
