Q is for Quercus ilex tunnels
Posted by Catharine on January 19th 2015
Seen here at Villa Cetinale, near Siena. The evergreen oak can be oppressive in its matt evergreen livery. In the hot high light of the south the long tunnels make a cool refuge from the sharp sun. The shadows fissure, spangle and dance.
