Olive Trees

A moment for longevity. Olive trees around the Mediterranean have been defying the elements for thousands of years. Winds have twisted them, storms have ruffled them and lightning has split them. Disfigured by scars and marked by strokes of fate, they stand in space in their very own dignity, as if their bark were telling a piece of world history in a landscape in which they have proven themselves to be messengers of constancy, loyalty and peace, and whether the olive fruit fly and the Xylella fastidiosa bacterium can harm them? In any case, the camera has already created a monument to the olive.
