After a great night’s sleep now feeling more ourselves I got up for my usual early morning wander to get a feel for Civita, I noticed immediately that the layout of the town was different than your typical Calabrian hill town. Civita beside being another of Italy’s most beautiful villages it is also one of the oldest towns of Albanian heritage in Italy this shows in their unique dialect, food and the people. The locals call a piazza or square “gjitonie” taken from the Greek meaning neighborhood and all the narrow alleys lead in a circular direction to the gjitonie that connects the different patches of the town like a beautiful quilt.
I took this shot on Sept 20th 2023 with my D850 and Nikon 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 at 32mm, 1/250s, f5.6 ISO 6400 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,Topaz, and DXO
