Terceira, Azores
A Terceira aerial
This sweeping shot highlights a patchwork of farmland stitched among small volcanic cones – a quintessential view of Terceira, one of nine major islands in the Azores archipelago. Dormant calderas and craters provide fertile soil throughout the Portuguese island chain, making agriculture a central part of Azorean life. That even includes the twin Cabras Islets in the distance, once home to goatherds who tended livestock there ("cabras" means "goats" in Portuguese).
