Montefalco Series #08 – Beautiful Cloud Formations over Montefalco

Billowing clouds, high above Montefalco.
Montefalco
Located between Rome to the south and Florence to the north, is a small walled hill-town called Montefalco.
“A little piece of heaven” some have called it, Montefalco (pop. 5600) is situated high in the Colli Martani, with a 360 degree view of the surrounding countryside. On a clear day, you may not be able to see forever, but you can see across the gorgeous Vale de Umbria to Perugia, Assisi, Spoleto, Trevi, Bevagna, Foligno, Bettano, Pissignano and a collection of other small towns and villages. Below the town lies the flood plain of the Clitunno River.
Montefalco, the birthplace of no less than eight saints, is in the middle of Umbria’s most important grape growing and wine producing country.
We lived here for a month, and my photography followed a number of themes, evidenced by the images in this series.

    Ahh one of my favorite type of images, the right is great framed by the buildings, the center is just awesome, so rare to see this large a cloud much less two seperated. The right looks like a snowy mountain top.

    Looks like time of day has a factor.. fluffy clouds they are. Makes me think of other clouds… but some clouds don’t have the same feel to them.. as some people like fluffy cotton compared to smooth striated cirrus… hmmmm.. so there is separation in the clouds.. who is better than who. Guess it can go the same for colors.. as some colors.. and even subject matter can attract certain people.

    Thank you Lambchop – comments most appreciated.
    Yes, the left and centre images seem to almost be the negative of each other. K.
