Falconara Marittima

Falconara Marittima sur la Mer Adriatique. L’Italie, avec sa forme très distinctive de botte qu’on reconnait immédiatement depuis l’espace. C’est un pays où il fait bon vivre et que j’aime bien photographier : du pied des Alpes à la Mer il n’y a qu’un pas, les paysages changent à la fois très vite et très progressivement : montagnes, grands lacs et villes côtières pour le plaisir des yeux :)

A village along the coast of Italy. The two coasts are very distinct, you are either on the Mediterranean or the Adriatic. This is Falconara Marittima on the Adriatic. :) Italy is a great place to be and its distinctive shape of the boot makes it an easy country to recognise immediately when we pass over - Andreas Mogensen has a joke on why is Italy shaped like that but I’ll let him tell it. Sometimes we are lucky and our orbit travels down the full boot-shape from north to south with no clouds. This happened recently and here I present Italy in photomapping and all its splendour.
