Le Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Drei Zinnen in tedesco e Tré Thìme in ladino, sono tre delle cime più famose delle Alpi, e sicuramente le più famose delle Dolomiti (precisamente le Dolomiti di Sesto), una delle meraviglie naturali più conosciute nel mondo dell’alpinismo.
Le Tre Cime si possono raggiungere dal Lago di Misurina, da Auronzo di Cadore e dalla Val di Sesto e offrono ai visitatori una notevole vista panoramica delle cime circostanti e del Parco naturale Dolomiti di Sesto.
Le Tre cime assomigliano vagamente a tre dita, che puntano verso il cielo compatte, armonicamente allineate, apprezzate dagli estimatori per forme e colori.
La famosa parete settentrionale è situata completamente sul territorio di competenza del comune di Dobbiaco, anche se le Tre Cime di Lavaredo sono state da tempo immemorabile nel Comune di Auronzo di Cadore in provincia di Belluno, dal 1752 il confine corre giusto sopra le cime, e 3/4 del massiccio sono rimaste nel Comune di Auronzo.
Fra il 1915 ed il 1917 le vette delle Lavaredo costituirono il fronte di guerra. Di questo periodo rimangono ancora evidenti resti (trincee, gallerie, baraccamenti) sul massiccio e sul vicino Monte Paterno.

--------------------------------------------
The Tre Cime di Lavaredo (Italian for "three peaks of Lavaredo"), also called Drei Zinnen (German for "three battlements"), are three distinctive battlement-like peaks, in the Sesto Dolomites of northeastern Italy. They are probably one of the best-known mountain groups in the Alps.
They are built of well-layered dolostones of the Dolomia Principale formation, Carnian to Rhaetian in age, as many other groups in the Dolomites (e.g., the Tofane, the Pelmo or the Five towers).
Until 1919 the peaks formed part of the border between Italy and Austria. Now they lie on the border between the Italian provinces of Bolzano-Bozen and Belluno. The largest of the peaks has an elevation of 2,999 metres (9,839 ft). It stands between the small peak, of elevation 2,857 metres (9,373 ft), and the western peak, of elevation 2,973 metres (9,754 ft).

HI Franco!

It's a pleasure to see them again... I was there this spring and was impressed by the beauty not only of the Tre Cime, but also of the whole region. I like the cloudy sky in your picture very much, it gives the mountain an even wilder touch...

Kind regards

Markus

Hi Franco

A wonderful shot - it is reminiscent of a painting by Landseer. Beautiful composition and tones here.

Bonjour Franco,
Une approche asez inhabituelle des Trois Zinnen. On les voit en général prises d'un autre angle de vue. J'aime bien le côté "sfumato" de ton image. Paysage très impressionnant et magnifique. Un grand bravo
Anne

Lovely shot, with excellent POV and colours. The lights here are perfect.
Best wishes,
Achim

WWWWWWWWWOW!What a shot!Awesome composition, my dearest bro!You ROCK!

Cheers!

Bonjour Franco,
J'ai totalement occulté cette image lors de sa publication certainement parce que la miniature n'est réellement pas représentative de la qualité de la photographie aux indéniables et remarquables effets picturaux.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
