Caulonia 2
Caulonia is my kind of town a beauty on the inside a little rundown on the outside but full of the charm of the south and add an extra bonus of being spread across three hills makes for a unique layout and so many twisted alleyways to explore. As with a lot of Southern hill towns the preservation of Caulonia in its current form is most likely due to mass migration of the young to other places for work and a lack of resources to change much for those that stayed. While these factors leave a town well preserved it also leaves it with a certain ancient melancholy that sinks into the stones but for the people remaining hope is not lost and a sense of optimism prevails.
I took this on Sept 17th 2023 with my D850 and Nikon 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 G2 Lens at 40mm, 1/250s, f11 ISO 2200 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia ,Topaz, and DXO
