TITLE: Mondeval Valley | Dolomites
Deep in the heart of the Dolomites, there's an awesome place called Mondeval. Right in the middle a litte lake called Lago delle Baste seems to appear out of nowhere
Beauty all around, clouds running away from the top of Mount Pelmo.
Silence everywhere.

"Mountains and photography involve walking, letting your eyes guide you, improvising, discovering, moving from place to place, and seeing familiar ones in a new light. Just one camera, one lens, a tripod and handful of black-and-white rolls your only companions. It means wandering in and out of the forest, over and around the mountains, aimlessly and timelessly, following the path of the sun, clouds drifting in and out of sight, casting light and shadow on the snow and on the rock. Each shot is full of silence and soulfulness. It is as though I am in the mountains and in the photograph at the same time. And this, for now, is all I need." (Alberto Bregani)
