Landscape Photography in the Italian Dolomites Part I

[@AttilioRuffo]

I really loved making this video, I hope you enjoyed it too! Did you like the music?

[@eatwelllivewell4941]

Loved it!

[@santoshmahalik]

Enjoyed it

[@_Mola]

The music adds alot to the atmosphere. Great Choice! PS: Love the song around 8 min. Does anyone know the title?

[@AttilioRuffo]

@@_Mola Thanks, th song is Sparkle by Sparkle...

[@michaelmclean4791]

Really enjoyed it and music was great. Glad you were able to get back to your roots.

[@lucaceoloni1574]

There is nothing like Dolomites. Amazing!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Beautiful places indeed! 🇮🇹

[@molopez619]

L Ceol this and Patagonia are so damn beautiful!

[@lucaceoloni1574]

@@molopez619 yes but I live near by and of course I'm proud of my Land ;) patagonia is a dream destination also

[@francescad4054]

Thanks Attilio for yet another inspiring video. Nowadays it looks like it’s all about planning ahead, being at the right time in the right place, knowing what exactly you’re gonna have in the frame. But nature doesn’t work that way, skies can be boring, the mountains can be unpredictable and whoever knows the Dolomites will have first hand experience of this. So what are the options? Packing up and leaving? No, it’s what you’re doing. Turning unfavorable conditions to your advantage, improvising, being truly creative! Nature is always amazing and always worth it. Even if it’s not sunrise or 5 towers. We are surrounded by beauty and you have eyes to see it.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Grazie Francesca! My intention with these videos is exactly about you described, I want these videos to come across as spontaneous as possible. Thanks for your support! 😊

[@chrisbullett1513]

You have to understand and appreciate how much time Attilio pours into making these videos. I think they are so well put together and he is high underappreciated!

[@AttilioRuffo]

I love your support Chris! Thank you

[@willemdebruijn3185]

In this video you can see where your heart is. Amazing landscapes, the love for your home country is so obvious. That love is reflected by your pictures. Great job!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you William! 🙏

[@iczemi]

I was moved by the ending. Very beautiful.

[@AttilioRuffo]

I guess real feelings come across through KZbin! :-)

[@grahamhunneman3503]

Hi Attilio, or should I say "Ciao Attilio", I admire your love of photography and how you go about making your vlogs, but this one was extra special, you could tell immediately from the first second of this episode it was going to be amazing. Great work 👌

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you Graham, I really appreciate it! It felt the same way for me!

[@michelleliu7970]

I really love how the music complimented your footages on this video. Very well done. Maybe my favorite video so far.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you 😘

[@simonlee5659]

Yes, I could sense your love to Italy, and I love this country too, there's so much to see and so much to learn and this affection will never end.

Fotografare la bellezza della natura oggi é importante, ma lo é ancora di più se la si apprezza prendendosi un po’ di tempo per ammirarla. Bel video Attilio.

This video caught a lot of memories. I stayed for all the holidays in dolomites it`s my favourite place for hiking. 2016 I worked for 1/2 half-year nearby Meran. Thank you to see this again.

[@AttilioRuffo]

It did the same for me! :-) Ciao Claudia!

Thanks Jean-Paul, and yes indeed there was some Nostalgia at the end.. which I see it as a good thing!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Grazie mille Alberto!

[@stevepayne5404]

Hi Attilio and thanks for another great video. This video brought out the real situations that we run into while trying to get the shot. Weather or sun and clouds not cooperating for the composition that you are looking for. Your patience is astounding and I think that the shot you showed was amazing. I think we can all learn from your videos because your bringing all real life situations into them. Your last comment about the memories with your father and family and the fact that yourself “maybe I should spend more time here” also brings up a real life moment. I am always telling friends and family that it doesn’t matter where you live...... home will always be home. I can’t wait to see more of your beautiful country and homeland in videos and your landscape photos. I have said it before and will say it again. You are the inspiration for my photography goals Ciao

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you very much Steve! I am really glad to read your comment, as really this is all these videos are about : real life landscape photography! I appreciate your support 🙏

Attilio ..... as nice as the sun feels it's not your friend in Italy I see especially in the summer. Good luck waiting on the clouds. I grew up going to Greece which has very similar weather and I can count on my fingers the number of a cloudy or overcast days in over 30 summers. Great video as always. Wish I was there.

[@pablonickodemus8785]

Hey Attilio. Beautiful video from a beautiful part of the world. I hiked across the entire Dolomites on the Alta Via 2 from Bressanone ( in Sud Tirol ) to Croce d'Aune. It was one of the best treks I ever did . It also was one of the toughest as we were doing in late June and because of the high heat in the afternoons we were getting terrible lightening storms every afternoon and being up high on a Torre it was quite hair raising to quote a pun. Still one of the most amazing spots as are the many Via Ferrata we completed along the way as well. Its a very unique part of the world. Love your work and am jealous as hell wish I could be back there again too.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you! Glad to hear you got to enjoy these beautiful places!

[@christianbrackman4935]

Dear Attilio, this is a great video.! I'm sure everyone understands the nostalgia you feel in the Dolomites. There are places in the world that are special for everyone! Thank you for sharing this with us! Christian Brackman from Brussels.

Video davvero molto molto bello... peccato non avere avuto l’opportunità di conoscerti . La tua arte di fotografare continua a sorprendermi e dal mio modesto parere il tuo comporre video e’ oramai altrettanto sensazionale . Sei un maestro e un esempio . Grazie

[@AttilioRuffo]

Grazie mille Eugenio! Apprezzo tantissimo.

[@Ruscombephotos]

This a beautiful video. I have never been to the Dolomites, but would like to put that right before long. When I go back to England, having lived in New York for 20 years, I get the same sense of nostalgia and that I am reconnecting with my routes. Unfortunately, I don’t get much time to do that on short trips to the UK and you have made me realize I need to find more time to do that.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you 🙏

[@lowellprice6351]

Excellent video, Attilio. I have wanted to go to the Dolomites for decades. I am a geologist (and a landscape photographer), in which the Dolomites would add an additional perspective for me. Keep up the excellent work, no matter where you go to capture beautiful landscapes.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thank you! I hope you will make it to the Dolomites soon...
