Best of the week 35

In 2016 I traveled to Austria for the first time and I absolutely felt in love with the country. Its nature certainly surprised me, I found beautiful landscapes everywhere! Being there and experiencing so many wonderful moments is what motivated me to grab a camera in the first place. I just felt really lucky to be there, so I thought that having some nice photos from this trip would be completely worth it!

I began to wake up early in order to contemplate sunrises. Oh man! So many times I felt extremely happy just being above the clouds, watching the first sun rays illuminate the mountains…

"This trip inspired me to keep traveling around Europe in order to see as many beautiful places as possible. One of my favorite moments was in South Tyrol where I saw a gorgeous glowing mountain tenderly illuminated by the sun. I wish I could go back to that moment!"

Nowadays I really enjoy taking photographs. I find the workflow to be very interesting. I have to travel to the right spot at the right time, move around in order to find the best composition, then take a deep breath and shoot, edit the photos and be creative, and so on… In addition, I get to share my experiences with the rest of the world! I really appreciate all the feedback because I can learn from it. Overall, I believe that landscape photography offers a really nice experience because you are also outdoors enjoying nature.

"I love forests by the way, I can spend hours walking through forests just enjoying the silence."
"And here I am now, sharing my story thanks to all your votes! Thank you for believing in my work! I hope I can keep inspiring you to go outdoors and enjoy life! Don’t forget to live the moment!"
