Some fruits are clustered on the pads, while others hang from the branches. The background shows a natural setting with green foliage and a mountainous landscape. The image captures the texture and details of the cactus and its fruits, highlighting the contrast between the green pads and the colorful fruits.

Alcantara Gorge, Francavilla di Sicilia, Sicily, Italy

Several thousand years ago, the river bed was blocked by a lava flow from Mount Etna. As the lava was cooled much more quickly by the water than it would have done otherwise, it crystallised in the form of columns. Over the next millennia, the river naturally eroded a channel through these columns, resulting in impressive gorges and ravines, such as the Alcantara Gorges (Gole dell’Alcantara) next to Francavilla di Sicilia, where the Peloritani mountains end. – Wikipedia
