Termoli
Termoli is one of the secret places that Italians reserve for themselves and their European neighbors in the know, once fishing village fortress now rebranded as a beach resort that is difficult to reach which keeps it off the beaten path for most. The old city is a feast for the eyes with a compact labyrinth of medieval dwellings located on a promontory surrounded by a fortress walls with a harbour inside through a sea gate that would have repelled all but the most determined Saracens. For all of Termoli’s beauty I was most fascinated by the trabucco a 2000 year old Phoenician designed fishing platform for harvesting fish without setting sail, nets are dropped from the antenna poles and schools of fish will swim over, when lifted lunch is served.
I took this on Oct 08, 2012 with my D70s and Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 Lens at 42mm, 1/320s, f9 ISO 200 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,Topaz, and DXO Nik
