Long Exposure Photography in Cinque Terre

[@bradroberts8629]

What A Gracious Host to allow a Great Photographer in to create the sunset shots

[@AttilioRuffo]

😍

[@sro9618]

It's Europe, people here are a little more hospitable and accomadating than in the U.S.

[@khajakkodjian5163]

Being kind and genuine and asking people nicely will open many doors especially for photographers as shown in this video. Beautiful place Attilio, enjoy and keep it up. Ciao.

[@AttilioRuffo]

thanks!

[@fredbenjamin7072]

Attilio, you are my favorite landscape photographer. We were scheduled to visit Cinque Terre last year, but Covid ruined that plan. You are a fabulous teacher and for now, I live vicariously through your exploits -- and learn more about long exposure photography. Thank you so much for creating these wonderful videos.

[@dansouth2088]

I took one of the best photos of my life from that same view of Vernazza over 25 years ago. Not a long exposure but it was just a perfect balance of light and composition. This video brings back many memories of hiking and photographing the Cinque Terre!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Happy to hear!

[@mikevaughn7510]

These always make my Thursdays a bit brighter. Top notch as always Attilio but what really made the day better was seeing humanity at its best when complete strangers can be so kinds to one another.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Mike...the guy was really super nice!

[@pauloricardoferreira2841]

Hi, Attilio! Another inspirational video. Cinque Terre is in my wish list of places to visit. I'm a fan of Italy. Love the landscapes, culture, food (specially the gelati), language (ho studiato un pò).

[@saraisinaustin]

Attilio I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Such a beautiful location to have a photo shoot! The starburst shot was sensational! Thanks for sharing!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks Sara!

[@rlfisher]

I confess that I "LIKE" your videos even before I watch them. You never disappoint.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Too nice! Thank you...

[@paulhazel2145]

Vernazza is the crown jewel of the Cinque Terra. I’m glad you mentioned the food. Beautiful photos, as always 😊

[@AttilioRuffo]

I should talk more about the food! :-)

[@andyjsmith1981]

Absolutely stunning Attilio!!! And what a kind gentleman to let you 'borrow' his terrace for an evening! Superb!!!! 🙌🙌🙌

[@AttilioRuffo]

I got lucky!

[@marcoparodiphotography]

Che fortuna trovare una persona cosi' gentile Attilio! Tutti gli altri fotografi a soffrire in basso e tu nella posizione ideale ahahah ! Chiedere di poter fotografare dal suo terrazzo va decisamente a tuo credito! Bellissimo video e foto !

[@AttilioRuffo]

alla fine la gente può essere anche gentile...ed io ho trovato una persona super carina!

Keep on shooting, Atti. Let’s all pray that we will be again able to move freely & visit places like this on earth & capture moments of nature playing with light & shadows.

I love such old towns with narrow pathways, I would so pick a place like that over any big city

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@keithpinn152]

Hi Attilio: I really enjoyed this video. It brought back great memories when we were in the Cinque Terra in the spring of 2013. This area of Italy is such a beautiful and special location. We hope to be back in Rome & Civitavechia in 2022. The images that you captured were amazing. Cheers, Keith

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks mate!

[@LehWeGo868]

What a great and kind host... Very nice of him! Italy also appears to be very up and about... Wishing you guys safety and strenght.

[@francescad4054]

Thank God It's Thursday Attilio! Great location, Last time I visited, of all times, was March 2020, the weekend we eventually went in lockdown so my holiday was cut short. Beautiful composition, I like the way you positioned the tower. Thumbs up for Giorgio the Host!

[@AttilioRuffo]

thank you Francesca!

[@richardpesce5325]

Wonderful Attilio! I do not know what is more beautiful, the photography, the musical selection, or the interaction with the great host. You have achieved a true trifecta! Congratulations and bellissimo!

[@AttilioRuffo]

thank you!

[@anthonyalongi3432]

What great videos these are! Love both the photography content and the travel log-esqe content as well. Man I miss traveling to Europe! Thank you for brightening my days!!

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks mate 🙏

[@kiwinka7414]

Dear Attilio, I have been following your channel for a while and I do consider you are one of the hardest working photographers in KZbin. This episode really hits home for me because I was there with my wife and our child two years ago and I learnt to appreciate your culture and people and also admire the beautiful landscape in your country like the one in Cinque Terre. I was wondering perhaps you could tell me how does it feels having less tourists because of the pandemic,; I guess it must be more quiet than usual hence better for photography? Anyway, I say hi to you and keep up the wonderful job you're doing. Kia Ora!

[@AttilioRuffo]

thanks mate, there was a little less people, but still busy. It might be better in the Fall!

[@tilerman]

Wow, that terrace is beautiful and what a location. I could sit there every night and never get tired of the view. Amazing place, truly wonderful.

[@AttilioRuffo]

me too!

[@mdadvracr]

I've been there twice. Really love the area and this video brings back great memories of my time there. Now I have to go back!

[@AttilioRuffo]

[@pengyap]

Great vid Attilio! Thanks. Cinque Terra is on my bucket list to visit and photograph.

[@randydean23]

I have always had an interest/love for Italy. I spent a couple of my childhood years living next to Rolando and Luiga Columbo and their sons Fabio and Donjo. I basically lived with them_ ate meals with the family, played with the kids, watched the men play on their perfectly manicured bocci court, and on and on. Heck my favorite movie when I first began to really find "cinema" was Fellini's "LA Dolce Vita," but nevertheless though I Have done a fair amount of traveling I have never made it to Italy 🇮🇹. So for me it's just really great to see the area of Italy you're in and shown from your point of view. Keep up the great content Graci

[@AttilioRuffo]

Simply inspiring Attilio, thank you, Bart

[@WriterandPhotographer]

Instead of being stuck in solitary confinement for the past 14 months, it would be so much better to be looking through a viewfinder at Cinque Terre. Thank you for allowing me to do that vicariously. Great image and good to have some friendly people who probably take that view for granted. A few clouds would have been nice, but the star effect worked in this image.

[@AttilioRuffo]

Thanks mate 🙏

[@john_norris]

You're back on fire Attilio! My wife who is Armenian stayed in Pisa and visited Cinque Terre in September 2019. It was very very busy but incredibly beautiful. Watching you standing (and hiking) there brought it all back to her, and made me a little envious ! Great shot, and I am so grateful that you didn't saturate the life out of the colours of the buildings as is so often the case when I see photos of Cinque Terre. You did a great job of enhancing the images without making them surreal. Earth's natural beauty! Oh yeah, so Iceland 1 : 2 Italy \o/

Indeed, Attilio, Cinque Terre is lovely; been there two years ago, in exactly the town you are presenting to us; What a great view you found; and what a gracious man to let you photograph and do a video; beautiful, beautiful; your images and music are always a gift!! PS. I like your f/8 and be there T-shirt. Have some of your other shirts for myself and my wife who also dabbles into photography. We will wear them in Africa and Costa Rica later this year.

So many amazing places that I get to visit through your videos. Cinque Terre is certainly at the top of the list for places that I want to go visit in real life. It is really nice to see that people are also very friendly and accommodating even though they don't need to be. Can't wait to see what next week brings.

One of my favorite all time places in Italy!

Italy...Love the place and each time I visit, I discover something totally new. Wonderful people, wonderful food, as long as you keep away from English menus and of course, a photographers paradise.

Another excellent video Attilio. I am really enjoying the tour of Italy. One question though. Would a little higher camera position, putting a little area of water between the top of the castle and the background, been a little better composition?

Thanks for yet another great video! I'm just wondering: what were your thoughts when deciding to perfectly align the tower in the foreground to the coast line in the background ... it goes against my intuition, meaning that I would never have composed it that way ... but the result is great, so you were obviously right 🙂 ... seems I have a lot to learn about composition 😉

Thank you for this video so wonderful place. The man was very kind to allow you to photograph the scene. My plan is to visit Italy in September.
