A view of Ragusa from Ragusa Ibla. During my times here, I’ve studied where the light falls with the sunrise and how the moon rises with the sunset. The Church of Santa Lucia soakes up the morning rays on the hillside. Its eastern exposure helps me imagine an ancient temple under its foundation. Regretfully, with the 1693 earthquake in the region, we’ve lost such archeological information, as it was buried under the 18th century baroque construction. Regardless, the magesty and spirit present on this hill is timeless.
