Description
To paraphrase the title of comedy by Tennessee Williams,
”Cat on a Hot Tin Roof”, I called this image "Cactus on a Hot Tin Roof”!
From few years, I have moved to live in a small village of hill a few kilometers from Catania. Yesterday morning, to achieve faster the centre of the country, I took a narrow street surrounded by old houses ... I look up and behold that a small and stunded cactus, prickly pear, strikes me the eye! What is there to make a cactus on the channels of an old house, among rusty gutters, old mouldy walls and wire of light?
Maybe a seed carried by the wind taked above, accomplice also of Etna volcanic sand deposited on the roofs ... it's very fertile!
Here is another evidence of "Green Power"! :)
Have a great week-end!
