21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Lunar Hill

This distinctive natural land formation in Gozo is sometimes referred to as Xwejni rock, but it is more commonly referred to as Lunar Hill, likely due to its moon-like characteristics. There are aspects of Gozo that seem enigmatic and it was my hope to capture a sense of what makes Gozo sometimes feel a bit otherworldly.
