1/640 f/6.3, ISO 100,

È senza dubbio il luogo di culto più inaccessibile sulla terra, arroccato su una guglia di roccia verticale e 200 metri di vuoto su entrambi i lati. La chiesa monolitica Abuna Yemata, situata nel nord dell'Etiopia nella regione del Tigray, si trova a 2.600 metri di altezza e per raggiungerla si deve scalare a piedi nudi una roccia verticale, cosa che fa pensare a come le famiglie riescano a raggiungerla per le funzioni domenicali. Risalente al V secolo, la storia narra che il suo fondatore, padre Yemata, costruì la cappella per essere più vicino agli spiriti celesti; tuttavia, altri sostengono che sia stata una mossa strategica per evitare i suoi nemici. Questo è il posto più straordinario che abbia mai visto e questo prete è uno dei soggetti più incredibili che ho avuto la fortuna di fotografare nella mia vita.

Very valid, it has that mystical, solemn and ethereal flavor that gives it a very particular aura: good!

Very beautiful photo, but in my opinion the flash shot is a bit too invasive making the scene a little unnatural. In my opinion, it is not too natural not even to put the subject in place (I imagine you paid,maybe not him directly but someone else?). Congratulations on the definitely difficult shooting situations,although from the video you see that there was someone to help you ;-). Greetings!

The Americans make it long on the Monumental Valley but here it is much better; other than Sitting Bull !!!
Aside the jokes a beautiful story and a beautiful photo

Really nice guys, thank you very much!
For "The Vime" : in Ethipia there is no place where you can go without a permit or without a guide (the guy who in the video helps me with the flash) that of course you have to pay. And yes, since that priest posed for me, I made an offer. As for the light, I arrived at the top at 9 am and since the light was too hard, I stayed 3 hours waiting for a little cloud to cover the sun. And with a jump of 200 meters a few cm behind me it is possible that it did not pay attention to the power of the flash that, as you say, is probably too invasive. Thank you for the comment i still take as advice for the future. In fact, I hope I never stop learning.
A greeting
MAuro
