BACK ON THE ROAD TO MONTESILVANO by sangwann

BACK ON THE ROAD TO MONTESILVANO

After the short break we continued our trip to our hotel in Montesilvano.
This is the Maiella Mountain that I captured through the coach window on our way there. Very often I was frustrated because the best sights always seemed to be on the opposite side to where I was sitting on the coach. I was changing sides frequently as I had the back of the coach to myself – the others must have thought I was a bit crazy. In the end, taking shots through the opposite side of the coach proved a better option than taking pictures from my side as there were less –or even no – reflections on the glass.

The Maiella range which forms part of the Appenines would be a common sight for the rest of the holiday.

Thank you very much for your wonderful comments and the many fav’s on yesterday’s picture.
Terrific shot. Wasn't it the Appenines that Hanibal rode over?

@swilde Yes, but the Appenines start from southern Italy going up to the Alps (almost).

I really like the perspective. Its neat that you have included the man looking out of the window.

Great image of a beautiful part of the world Dione

Spectacular landscape.

Oh I like this, makes me feel like I´d be there sharing the action

Great view out the coach window, spectacular scenery Dione :-)

I like this! Gives great perspective as to where you where and where the mountain is.

I always have this trouble too. very frustrating if you cant move seats. I end up setting my camera on action shots and holding down the button. You have done well with this one
April 28th, 2014  
I usually have that kind of luck too. It can be frustrating
April 28th, 2014  
Great shot of the mountain - and you entertained your fellow coach passengers too :)
April 28th, 2014  
Tough to get a nice shot but it does look like a nice view
April 28th, 2014  
Great view
April 28th, 2014  
Conveys just what we have done in Italy on a coach in 2011.

Great capture of those beautiful mountains through the coach window!
April 28th, 2014  
What a lovely sight and your information is so very interesting. Thank you.

Wonderful Mountain shot Dione , and on the move too.

When we lived in Europe early in our marriage we took some bus tours like this. We quickly learned it was easier to go on our own. The good view was always on the wrong side of the bus. You still managed to get a great shot of the mountain.

Thank you for your comment, and also for sharing this spectacular view
April 28th, 2014  
Actually this is a nice photo.
April 28th, 2014  
We tried everything for a master pic. Great shot of traveling and the beautiful view out of the window on a great mountain.
April 28th, 2014  
Fantastic view
April 28th, 2014  
That is a seat with a view, beautiful
April 28th, 2014  
And I like all the front interest of passengers.
April 28th, 2014  
Sounds like a great trip Dione. Keep those great shot coming.
April 28th, 2014  
the windows do a good job of framing.
April 29th, 2014  
There is one mountain you can climb
April 29th, 2014  
Gorgeous mountain! Enjoying viewing pics from your trip!

I love this pov - it really sets the mood and tells the story of what is happening.
April 29th, 2014  
WOW...what a pov! This is totally amazing....fav
April 29th, 2014  
Sounds like a great trip and your POV from the bus conveys just how big that mountain is.
April 29th, 2014  
What wonderful view Dione.
April 29th, 2014  
Wonderful view, lovely capture.
April 29th, 2014  
@dulciknit Thanks

Beautiful mountain! Yes, I know how hard it is to catch a good shot of the sights from a tour bus. But you did quite well.
