Che meraviglia, complimenti! Queste tue foto sono gli scatti più originali che abbia visto ultimamente. Hai usato un cavalletto? Il soggetto mi sembra molto nitido, oltre il gioco di luci.

I usually hezitate to give fours but in this case i gave 5 and wished to give more. Excellent shot and you said you didnt photoshopped it, it makes it unmatchable shot and uncompareable. awesome man, welldone

That's a truly stunning image, as much as i'm a fan of long exposure shots it had never occured to me before to adjust the zoom of a shot mid-exposure, and an effect you can be gurantee'd i'll be trying out like mad now thanks to you :)
