Etna, still working

A road over black volcanic ground toward a summit quietly making its own weather.

A pale road crosses black volcanic slopes toward Mount Etna, where white smoke streams from the summit.

Field note

The bit outside the frame.

The scale is difficult to trust until you spot the buses and the small figures scattered across the lower slope.

Everything looks still, but the smoke is a useful correction: this landscape is not finished.
