Forsivo, a photo from Perugia, Umbria

Photographer's Note

Forsivo

Il castello di Forsivo si trova adagiato ai margini di un pianoro, formato da una delle propaggini della catena dei Monti Sibillini, posto alle pendici del Monte Cavogna ed in prossimità di un valico, a cui deve probabilmente anche la sua etimologia, dato che in questa parte di territorio umbro la denominazione di valico prende l'appellativo di “Forca”, infatti, il toponimo Forsivo che in dialetto suona Furcìu potrebbe derivare da “furcivus” ( Forca ) analogamente a quanto avviene per campivo prativo, ecc.
L’insediamento è antico, probabilmente abitato sin dalla preistoria, sicuramente abitato da popolazioni umbre, come testimoniato dalla presenza di castellieri.

Ciao Caro Silvio,

You have composed this mountain scene very well. The panorama places the buildings on a long diagonal across the frame.
Though the light is quite dull, the details of the pastel coloured houses are still quite sharp.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Silvio,
It's another fascinating small village with the church at the top of the hill. I like the panoramic shape of the photo, but I think it lacks some contrasts. A slight adjustment of the colours would also have been possible.
Best regards,
Gert

Ciao Silvio,
another photogenic settlement, set half way a hill. It is so nicely surrounded by nature. It makes a pleasant diagonal in your frame. There was a slight fog on that day which contributes to a feeling of a cold day, together with the winter colors of the vegetation.
Very well seen and captured,
M

Hi Silvio,

The tight frame is putting the village in evidence. the point of view is showing the details of houses and of the church. The light is enhancing the colors. Have a nice day.

Ciao Silvio,

I like the wide angled panoramic format and the superb elevated vantage point. Good sharpness & the bell-tower of the church at right provides a fine focal point. Tfs!

Hi Silvio.
This town also looks fantastic, the set of its houses forming a diagonal like the mountain does, ideally surrounded by those leafy slopes.
Excellent sharpness and splendid light.
Very well done. I like it.
You have a good day.
Very best regards.
Luis.

Hi Silvio,
A photogenic landscape with this town built on the slope of the mountain, good effect with your panoramic presentation, good detail with in particular the church on the right side, maybe more contrast for the presentation, a detail, tfs

Ciao Silvio,

These villages on the hill slopes look similar. And it is unbelievable how many of them you have near Spoleto. This one is very small Do they live people there? I saw on Google map, but there are three churches there, with just a few streets. fantastic view.
Have a nice day
