    Tips

    February 5, 2022

    The ancient tree has been nicknamed 'The thinking olive tree' because it looks like an elderly gentleman with eyes, nose and beard intent on thinking and meditating.
    It has been present in the Ginosa countryside for centuries. Not much is known about his age but it is evident that it is enough to observe him in photography to realize that nature is giving us a new show to admire.
