Orange Hills

The late afternoon sun bathes the Dolomites in a warm, amber glow, transforming the slopes into a sea of golden larches. In the heart of this serene landscape, a small village rests in quiet repose, its white-washed homes and stone church standing as timeless sentinels. The long shadows stretch across the meadows, hinting at the day’s end, while the crisp mountain air carries the scent of pine and earth. This is Selva di Cadore, a place where nature’s palette is painted in fire and light, and time slows to the rhythm of the setting sun. Photographer Gori Vasiliy captures the soul of the Italian Alps in this moment of tranquil beauty.
