Quiet

From a high vantage point, the layered ridges of a volcanic complex unfold in dramatic relief, sculpted by time and eruption. Sunlight gilds the slopes, casting long shadows that emphasize the terrain’s texture and depth. A soft cloud bank wraps around the mid-level peaks, while the farthest summit releases a delicate plume of smoke into the clear sky. The scene evokes a profound stillness, where nature’s raw force is held in quiet repose. Photographer Fortuna Fabrizio captures this moment with a sense of awe and reverence for the earth’s enduring power.
