Winter Milky Way Above Piano Dei Grilli And Mount Etna

From the photographer: “Winter Milky Way Above Piano Dei Grilli And Mount Etna (Tracked & blended)

We arrived at the Piano dei Grilli refuge in the town of Bronte known for its pistachio cultivation. The evening is cool but not very cold and Etna is snowy but sleeping. A small curious fox approaches us looking at us from a distance sitting on its hind legs. Her eyes glow deep green. All around us we can see the typical vegetation of the slopes of the volcano such as the broom. Time passes peacefully and after having resumed the constellation of Orion, it is time to resume the Milky Way in all its extension.
