Driving through the Dolomites is an experience in itself, with roads winding their way through the mountains and each bend revealing something different. Passo Giau is particularly memorable, with its tight series of bends making the journey through the pass feel like part of the experience rather than simply a way of getting from one place to another.

I captured this image with my drone, giving me the chance to see a section of the road from a completely different perspective. From behind the wheel, you experience each bend individually as the road disappears around the trees. From above, the shape of the road becomes much clearer, revealing how tightly it winds through the forest.

What makes the photograph interesting to me is that it doesn't rely on the dramatic mountain scenery usually associated with Passo Giau. Instead, the road and surrounding trees create the entire composition, with the winding tarmac cutting naturally through the dense landscape. Seeing it from above gave me a completely different appreciation of the drive i'd just taken.
