Sheep grazing on a field are seen at the Crete Senesi (Siennese clays) area near

Sheep grazing on a field are seen at the "Crete Senesi" (Siennese clays) area near Asciano October 6, 2011. The Crete Senesi, located in the Italian region of Tuscany to the south of Siena, consists of an untouched natural landscape of hills and woods. Some 2.5 million years ago, the area was covered by the Pliocene sea and the clay, with a distinctive grey colouring that contributes to the "lunar" appearance of the landscape, represent the sediments left behind.
