Wow, incredible how the land seems to liquify.
 
Roman (roamin') hills. :biggrin:

Was there a lot of rain, or perhaps an earthquake?

Is the white rock dolomite?
 
2012 :biggrin:
 
The coverage on BBC is not as long (the clip I found, anyway), but it is in much higher resolution. I may search it again and post it a bit later. Scary!
 
Sweet. That was impressive.
 
Madonna Santissima, incredibile.
