[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
The Abbey of Sant'Antimo is a beautiful Romanesque church, in a picture-perfect setting just south of Montalcino in southern Tuscany. It sits in a large valley with views of the hill town Castelnuovo dell'Abate, rolling hills covered in olive groves and vineyards, and wild forests. I try to visit Sant'Antimo each time we are in Tuscany. It is one of the finest Romanesque religious buildings in Italy. The church dates from the 12th century.

Sant'Antimo is about 10km south of Montalcino. Follow the road from Montalcino to Castelnuovo dell'Abate. You will see Sant'Antimo on your right, down in the valley, just before Castelnuovo dell'Abate. Drive down into the valley and you will see parking along the road.

A very beautiful old church! Fantastic lighting and colors. I love the clouds! TFS

Hello Andrea,
This fine building is made even more impressive by your choice of a low POV. The sunlight on the façade and the belltower contrasts beautifully with the dark sky. Well done.
Regards,
Gert

Andrea,
This is a very nice view of the great church. The lighting is perfect spotlighting the facade and tower. The contrast formed by the areas of sun and shadow is great. The dark clouds make the lighting even more dramatic.
TFS,

Hello Andrea. This is a beautiful photo of this wonderful church. You have caught it in a magnificent afternoon or early evening light under a moody dark sky. It looks incredible. Great sharp detail and wonderful viewpoint placing the church at this angle. Very well done.
Regards,
Andrew
