LEFT Giant beech trees
with twisted branches and
massive trunks are the true
protagonists of Abruzzo. When
the snow falls and settles, it
showcases their unique forms.
RIGHT By climbing a cliff,
waiting until sunset and
heading back in the dark,
Bruno captured the huge
number of ancient beech
trees that make up these
forests. In summer, this
scene is transformed into a
lime-green canopy of leaves.
