I went to a flat Turin area trying to capture a particularily bright overflight of the International Space Station (Magnitude -3.5, 85° at highest point) but I completely messed up with long exposures and bulb mode... so I retraced the ISS path in postproduction and overlayed it to the full panorama.
Now I'm publishing what my eyes have seen rather than what my camera actually captured: I hope you like it anyway...
Bronze sculptures: "Points of view" by Tony Cragg
Tony Cragg, "Points of view", 2006
Capital as well as cultural and business center of the Piedmont region, Turin is famous as headquarters of Fiat and Lancia, birthplace of Telecom Italia and Rai television and host of the 2006 Winter Olympics. Turin has a modern public transport infrastructure so it is easy to get to architectural sites and museums, most notably the Mole Antonelliana, which is the home of the National Cinema Museum. Home to Torino and Juventus, two historical italian football teams, the region is famous as the birth place of solid chocolate over 200 years ago. Gianduiotto is perhaps the most famous Turin chocolate currently in production.
