Soft equinox light settles over Lake Wallace in Wallerawang, capturing the calm shift into spring across the Central West. Blue quiet water and a seasonal glow create a peaceful rural landscape.
Taken in the Toledo Region of Spain.

Another image I captured while in Taormina,Italy. This image captures Piazza Duomo, the central historic square located along the main thoroughfare of Corso Umberto I in Taormina, Sicily, Italy.
The square showcases two of Taormina's most iconic historic landmarks:
1. Duomo di Taormina (Cathedral of San Nicolò di Bari)
The stone structure on the left is the town's medieval cathedral, originally constructed in the 13th century. It has a distinctively fortress-like facade complete with decorative battlements along the roofline. This architectural style, known as ecclesia munita (fortified church), was common in the Middle Ages to serve a protective defensive role alongside its religious purpose.
2. Fontana di Piazza Duomo (Quattro Fontane)
The prominent tiered structure in the foreground is a 16th-century Baroque fountain built in 1635 out of local pink Taormina marble. It is popularly referred to by locals as the Quattro Fontane (Four Fountains) due to the four corner columns topped with mythological seahorses.
• The City Emblem: At the very peak of the fountain stands a crowned, bipedal female centaur (often called a centauress). She holds a scepter of command in one hand and a globe in the other, which is the official emblem and coat of arms for the City of Taormina.
Remember this trend? I used to love it, with denim mini and flats to boot!
