Driving the motor-way between Brixen/Bressanone and bolzano,suddenly there was a very small turn-off to the left,to the Vilnosstal/Val di funes valley.
I was going to look for the grow-up place of world famous mountaineer,Reinhold Messner,the first solo climber of the Everest without oxygen and first man to have climed all fourteen peaks over 8000m!
And it was here where he learned his skills as a young man.
From the village of St.Magdalena,also the end of the valley,the 3025m Geisler gruppe is extremely well seen with clear weather.

hello Jan

Wonderful scenic landscape view of the valley with very good balance of color contrast. You spotted a great POV to show the low angle view of the field of flowers edging to the houses in the valley and backed by layers of green trees. The bare mountains in the background are fantastic separation to the blue sky.

A fine post-card scenery.

tfs, bill

Hi Jan,
This is a beautiful scene. I love the composition and your pov. The mountains look majestic. Nice work.
Regards,
Kevin

Beautiful shot Jan - the colour is so impressive this could be used on chocolate bar wrappers!!!!!!
The mountains don't seem to be as sharp as the foreground - maybe a higher f stop would be good..
Still - a very good scene, well captured..
Cheers
David

What a pleasant summer scene Jan
It reminds me of villages we saw in the Alpes of France when we were there in 1999...
I love the architecture of the buildings built for the snow.
Lovely memories for me

Beautiful landscape, very inviting to a hike (even if the peaks in the background do not look like accessible to non-Reinhold Messners).

Hi Yan, what a beautiful picture postcard of this most sublime summer setting in Tirol (is it?). Well selected angle with a bit of meadow in the foreground, thus bringing the viewer closer to the scene. Thank you!
Have a good week

Hello Jan,

a brilliant portrait of those mountanins and valley, where I spent a unforgettable holiday...
Very good composition where the green valley makes a sharp cromatic contrast with the mountains. I like the way the town is framed by the grass and woods. Bright lovely colours.
Cheers,
Donato
