I think "could be seen" would be better... or "were visible".

Does "breathtaking" need a hyphen?

Is the hyphen really important?

Fixed.

If you can find a dictionary that lists it with a hyphen, I won't complain. I'm not used to seeing it with, but maybe there is an alternative...

Does an English-Italian dictionary count? ;D

Hmm... no.

But I don't care. Do what you like.
