Destin Sparks, Goliath (LANDSCAPE 2027)

Rising dramatically above Passo Giau in the Italian Dolomites, the towering rock formation of Ra Gusela dominates the landscape. Beneath its immense limestone walls, a small mountain refuge and tiny figures scattered along the walking trail reveal the true scale of the scene. Warm autumn colours soften the rugged alpine terrain, while the last light of day catches the towering rock face. It is a landscape where the smallest details reveal just how enormous the mountains really are.
