Sights Around Sardinia
Sardinia is an island off the coast of Italy, between Sicily and Corsica, just south of Corsica (which is actually part of France).  Our port was Olbia, and on this day, we went for a tour to see the countryside of Sardinia, an ancient ruin, a winery and finally a small charming village.  Let’s start with the countryside views –
Moon Over Sardinia
This was early in the morning, off our verandah, as we approached the port.  I loved the fact that we could still see the moon up in the sky!  It was rather overcast, but it just added to the mood of the image.
Early Morning Sardinia
Now the sun was beginning to shine thru the clouds somewhat, and I really liked the way it added some depth to this image.
Sardinia Coastline
Here we are driving along the coast, and I really loved the feeling of space that this image provides.  I had no idea Sardinia was such a pretty place.
Natural B&W
I did not convert this image to black and white.  It just sort of came out as various tones of grey, with the sun’s rays visibly shining down to the sea.  What a peaceful image!
View through the Trees
This last image was taken further inland, and you can see more of the greenery of the island, along with some mountains on the island.  I thought the trees acted as a nice natural frame.
Enjoy!
