Sorrento Street Composition – Sedile Dominova

Sedile Dominova, on Via San Cesareo and Largo Padre Reginaldo Giuliani in the historic centre of Sorrento, was built between 1319 and 1344. This ancient “Seat” was a building where the nobles and aristocracy of Sorrento gathered to discuss politics and make important decisions. It’s the last surviving noble Seat in the entire Campania region.

My intent was to use my Mavic 3 drone to capture colorful spring buds in the old growth forest on High Point Lake, near the Piedmont Environmental Center.  The buds were not quite far enough along for a color photo.  Instead, monochrome made for a much more interesting composition of the fractal branching of hardwood trees.
