Location: Campocatino (1005 m)      by: Pedrotti Alberto
Area: Italy      Date: 26-03-2016
An old shepherd settlement of the Alpi Apuane, dominated by the Roccandagia, which is actually only a subsidiary summit of the mighty Tambura, but a very imposing one when seen from this side.
From here you may want to walk for an hour to reach the old hermitage of San Viviano, perched on a vertical rock. As an introduction to this unique site, a little conventional chapel, named in turn after San Viviano, has been built also in the middle of the big flat meadow described in the name: Campo-Catino, "field-basin", a perfect example of glacial modelling perhaps unexpected in this angle of world.

12 HF, Canon G1X, 28 mm, f/5.6, 1/200 sec.

Charming place...and still unusual to see Italian motives from you. Cheers, Martin

I love this ongoing abwechslung between Patagonia, India and more familiar sceneries
