Sunset paradise

No posts today: too busy with studying and the spare time is dedicated to the testing of the Canon. I leave you with a little souvenir, in hope it’s of your liking.

A day on Montemarcello (SP) – Italy

Posted by skandymicky on 2007, July 7

Awesome day. I just got back from the sea… and what a sea! Admire the beach of Punta Bianca, near the village of Montemarcello (SP). The pictures are geo-tagged on Flickr so you can check the exact location on a map. Really a shame my new camera didn’t come on time for this special day: the pictures shot with Olympus really cannot express the beauty of the place.

Giornata fantastica oggi. Sono appena rientrato dal mare… e che mare! Potete ammirare la “spiaggia” di Punta Bianca che si trova sotto Montemarcello (SP) in uno splendido parco regionale. Davvero un peccato che la Canon non sia arrivata in tempo per immortalare questa giornata… ho dovuto backuppare con la solita Olympus ma le foto non rendono minimamente l’idea della bellezza del posto. Cliccando sopra la foto entrerete in Flickr e potrete controllare sulla mappa il punto esatto in cui la foto è stata scattata (geo-tag).

Punta Bianca - Montemarcello

Punta Bianca - Montemarcello

The last pic was shot on the top of the hill (Monte Marcello). On the right there is La Spezia and you can also see 3 islands: Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto.

Questa foto invece è stata scattata da Montemarcello in un punto particolare che si trova sopra gli spiaggioni, ovvero Punta Corvo. Sulla destra dell’inquadratura c’è il Golfo di La Spezia e poi si riconosce l’isola Palmaria, il Tino ed il Tinetto piccolino. Anche in questo caso la foto è venuta molto male ed è un vero peccato!

Montemarcello - Bellavista

I couldn’t post other images both because they were absolutely low quality and they showed some of my friends who didn’t want to appear in the blog. I respect that of course!
By the way: if you liked these pics just wait until I get my hands on the new camera and I take it to 5 Terre…
If you want to know what 5 Terre is just check it here

Moonlight

the moon from my window

Yesterday I felt inspider by the moonlight and decided to take a shot (actually a bit more then one: see Zoomr for details) with my mom’s camera:
Sony DSC-W50.

I felt a little disappointed because taking a good shot to the moon is all but easy and it is clear that the professional cameras are indeed worth their cost.
This is as far as the camera gets. I cannot wait to try out the new camera.

Notice two things: the little point near the top of the pic is Venus, while the yellow light is a street lamp. Don’t know which of the two is the most suggestive.

This post is labelled as “left behind” because the moon looks weird from Sweden. In winter time it’s usually precluded from sight by clouds, while in summer time… there is far too much sun to take impressive pictures.

Ecco un po’ di sano basilico ligure. Per tutti coloro che non sanno come sia fatto.

Questo è il secondo vaso, mentre il primo è attualmente irraggiungibile (trovasi dentro il congelatore adeguatamente pestato, unito a pinoli, noci, formaggio ed olio). Se riesco posto anche una foto di un bel piatto di spaghetti al pesto… o di pizza ligure.

Litte basilika från Liguria för dom som vet inte vad det är faktisk.

Den här är min andra burk, för min första är smältat
