      Summary Author:  Emanuele Nifosì   
      
      Near the village of  Sampieri, Italy, there is an approximately   
      three foot or one-meter diameter natural well along the cliff that   
      connects to the sea through a canal. This opening is the result of   
       natural erosion that happened over the past centuries and consists   
      of two main segments- the first part is on the surface while the other   
      section is underground. Depending on the  meteorological and marine   
      conditions, which on the day of these photos included wind from the   
      south-east with gusts of 25-30 miles per hour (40-50 kilometers per   
      hour) and rough sea, the water column reaches this opening and explodes   
      upwards to over six and a half feet or two meters in height. Photo   
      taken on April 2, 2022.
