EXIF: Canon EOS 400D - 18mm, 1/250 sec at f/10.0, ISO 200.

Un paesaggio affascinante, eppure senza speranza.

A fascinating yet doomed landscape.

These rivers run too deep / With schemes of men for days that lay ahead
They sell their souls so cheap / They breed mistrust and fill my heart with dread
When did the boy become a man / And lose his life to learn
So much confusion to this plan / These times are not changing

The Adventures, Broken Land (1988)

Questo posto è pazzesco! Le montagne sembrano avere delle grosse cuciture. Certo che siamo proprio delle bestie.. no, non si può dire, le bestie non fanno di queste cose!

Look at those trails! Love the tiny detail.

The patterns on the mountain are fascinating, but knowing what they are, and why they are there is devastating.
Beautiful landscape…I wonder how it will look in 10 or 15 years time…

This view as just as beautiful as it is strange.

Fantastic shot! All those scars make stunning patterns: sad but visually fascinating.

Romine — It’s doomed because it’s the testament of the merciless violence man always inflicts on Earth. Fascinating, but those mountains have been sliced and broken to extract marble.

breathtaking perspective, but i wouldn’t say that is “senza speranza”. on the contrary is a proof of how mighty is God :)
great capture

Stunning capture! The light on this scene is just amazing! And I love the way it’s framed on the top by the clouds, and on the bottom by some of the foreground. Superb!
