Ciao Alin, fantastic old olive, sure over 1000 years old, superb trunk, very well done, have a good week end, buona Primavera da Spoleto, ciao Silvio

Hi Alin,

What a magnificent tree!
It looks like it's part of a grove.
The quaint little patio in the background also catches my eye. There lots of little interesting details: the stone walls, the little table and chair at the base of tree, the other olive trees.

I think your intention was to capture this spectacular specimen. If you had the chance I would suggest returning at a different time of day when the quality and direction of the light is more interesting. Also, you might want to experiment with the composition: placing the tree off center and being selective about which of these details to include and how they are arranged.

Nice to one share man. I enjoyed the shot.

This is spectacular, Alin, what a splendid tree. Just like an old man, I always feel humble in front of such an old tree, which I have never seen for real in my whole life. Lucky you! And welcome to TN,

Francine
