I took this photo in Cinque Terre of Via dell’Amore, a path that connects the five towns together. This walking path is full of dramatic and beautiful landscape scenery, and the coastline has amazing hills and vineyards sloping down to the sea. This picture I took, of a locked fence blocking the amazing view, reminded me of a preservation metaphor. Even though the 10-mile hike through the towns is beautiful, with each person that visits the area, more and more beauty is lost. The dilemma is keeping it open and allowing people to destroy the amazing nature, or lock it up and preserve the nature while nobody is allowed to enjoy it.
