Conquering Magical Shadows: The Magical Exploration of Sermoneta, Italy🏰🏞️🌄
When I entered the tranquil atmosphere of Lazio, Italy, I was already dazzled by the promise of discovering a forgotten relic of time. My goal was clear: to uncover the magical secrets of the town of Sermoneta, elegantly perched on a secluded hilltop surrounded by a wall.
The steep abandoned road that leads to this ancient wonder winds like a scarf, looping between the hills. With every turn, there was an even more impressive glimpse of the city's majestic skyline, which seemed to defy the slowly falling dusk.
As I parked my car on a stretch of road overlooking the valley below, the town of Sermoneta loomed before me like a stone sentinel, its unbroken ramparts bearing witness to centuries past. However, the deep chasm surrounding it was an impenetrable barrier, a constant reminder of the distance that separated me from this mystical place.
Although time was short as the sun was setting behind the mountains, my desire to capture this spectacular panorama remained unwavering. Without further ado, my trusty companion, the Zelya drone, was launched into the air. As it ascended, the playful hum of its engines filled the still air, adding a touch of modernity to the unchanging scene.
However, the vagaries of the wind and the unusual distance tested the communication between the drone and the control panel. My heart froze as I watched the Zelya's capricious flight, an uncertain aerial ballet over the abyss. Capricious gusts sometimes seemed to play on us, threatening to deprive the drone of its vital link.
The teams were slow to respond, adding to my growing anxiety. Every moment of separation between the drone and me felt like a plunge into darkness, leaving me feeling helpless in the face of unstable technology. However, I persisted, realizing that the result might well be worth the tension that was building.
With skill and a bit of luck, I guided Zelya through the towers of Sermoneta. The drone maneuvered between the stone battlements, revealing unique views of this architectural marvel from the air. The light of the fading sun streamed through the openings, shrouding the scene in a golden aura that seemed to reveal the city's buried secrets.
Shadows danced, distorting and stretching across the ancient walls, as if telling their stories of past glories. Through the lens of Zelya's camera, I captured the very essence of this fleeting moment, freezing the fragile harmony between ancient and modern.
Each frame represented a piece of modern history, a subtle combination of the power of innovation and the enduring greatness of the past. Despite the hassle and nervousness, every image etched in Zelya's memory witnessed an epic struggle to reveal Sermoneta's timeless beauty to the modern world.
As the light gradually faded and the sky turned purple and orange, I remembered the Zelya as I carefully lowered the drone towards me. His soft landing was a symphony of relief and triumph, a testament to the battle against the elements to capture the very essence of the magic that enshrouds this ancient city of stone.
In the silence that followed, I found myself enveloped in the ghostly aura of Sermoneta, its history carved into unchanging stones and now immortalized in the vivid images captured by the Zelya.
As I slowly walked away, the silhouette of the city gradually disappeared into the deepening darkness, leaving behind a lingering whisper of its mystical history, ready to be shared with a world waiting to be immersed in its magical shadows and its fascinating history.

Wow, top photographs 📸 Thanks for sharing 😃
thanks 💕
The drone shots are amazing, I really like the colours and reflections.
thank you, but you didn't see original ones, here 90% influence of result is editing
this time I did literally the huge job for editing, it was totally torture 🤯
here a few initials:
You're welcome.
I usually don't edit the pictures, they are exactly as I took them with my phone or drone, but yes, sometimes some retouching or improvements are needed.
I have to admit that each post of mine has somewhere between 40 and 80 pictures, but to get to post these pictures I have to choose these pictures from over 250-350 pictures (that's how many I take in any location).
If I were to edit them, I think it would take a lot of time, and my problem is that I don't have much free time.
I also don't have much free time, but the quality and appearance of my photos is more important to me than anything in the world, that's why I try to make them perfect, even if it takes a long time 😆I'm a terrible perfectionist
It is very good to want every post to go perfectly.
I'm sure this will help you in real everyday life too.
