Tagliamento river at sunset, a photo from Pordenone, Friuli-Venezia Giulia

Photographer's Note

A view on the river from a very good point of view: Pinzano bridge.
I tried to describe the many colors I saw as well as I could.

Some info about this river written by WWF:

In North-Eastern Italy there is a remarkable gravel-bed river that retains the dynamic nature and morphological complexity that must have characterised many Alpine rivers in the pristine stage.
This river system, the Fiume Tagliamento, (178km long) is considered as the last morphologically intact river in the Alps.

Although the Tagliamento is considered to be the most natural river system in the Alps, it is not without human impacts. Major human influences on the main river corridor are water abstraction in the upper Tagliamento valley, organic pollution, and gravel exploitation.
The Tagliamento River in Italy offers the rare opportunity to investigate natural processes at a scale that can be studied nowhere else in Europe. This remarkable river corridor exemplifies the ecological processes and patterns that must have characterised Alpine gravel bed rivers.

The Fiume Tagliamento is clearly a river ecosystem of European importance, since it constitutes a unique resource as a model reference catchment. However, the Tagliamento is a highly endangered ecosystem.

Hallo Livia!
Your photo transmits a very special atmosphere - an a bit mysterious one. The wonderful blue colour emphasizes this impression. One can see that this rive obviously comes from the Alps because of the incredible masses of bed load. According to your note it's a very interesting river.
Greetings from cloudy but dry Germany - and have a good week!

ciao Livia,
I colori sono bellissimi, e il PdV ben'scelto ci da un bella impressione di spazio... potrebbe essere un pelo più nitido, ma suppongo che non avevi un treppiedi...!

Hola LIvia.
I love this beautiful blue tones of the river, very well captured, good high POV. Nice soft colors in the sky, excellent composition and frame.
Well done, TFS.
Best wishes.

wow! this one came off so good. the beauty lies in the color tones down below as well as the orange hues on the horizon. Tagliamento is a beautiful river. The structure of this river reminds me of the beautiful Teesta river in north Bengal. Teesta, however, is a much bigger river along its length and breadth, but Tagliamento resembles the same character through its course. you may have a look at:

Hi Livia, I like the perspective and especially the blue tones you have captured well. Interesting to see such a wide river as this which is similar to the ones in the Canterbury plains near Christchurch in NZ. Your high POV makes this a wonderful photo. TFS. Murray.
