The surrounding potted plants seem to stand guard over it, patiently waiting for its long-overdue entry in the classic vehicle register.

A scenic, low-angle photograph of the beach in San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily, during the sunset (golden hour). Large, textured rocks dominate the foreground on the sandy beach. The tranquil waters of the bay reflect the deep yellow, orange, and blue hues of the sky. In the far distance, a distant Ferris wheel is visible against the silhouetted town and distant landmass.
