What am I looking at?!
From Wikipedia:
The Penrose triangle, also known as the Penrose tribar, the impossible tribar,[1] or the impossible triangle,[2] is a triangular impossible object, an optical illusion consisting of an object which can be depicted in a perspective drawing, but cannot exist as a solid object. It was first created by the Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvärdin 1934.[3] Independently from Reutersvärd, the triangle was devised and popularized in the 1950s by psychiatrist Lionel Penrose and his son, prominent Nobel Prize-winning mathematician Sir Roger Penrose, who described it as "impossibility in its purest form".[4] It is featured prominently in the works of artist M. C. Escher, whose earlier depictions of impossible objects partly inspired it.
Waterfall (Dutch: Waterval) is a lithograph by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher, first printed in October 1961. It shows a perpetual motion machine where water from the base of a waterfall appears to run downhill along the water path before reaching the top of the waterfall.
While most two-dimensional artists use relative proportions to create an illusion of depth, Escher here and elsewhere uses conflicting proportions to create a visual paradox. The watercoursesupplying the waterfall (its aqueduct or leat) has the structure of two Penrose triangles. A Penrose triangle is an impossible object designed by Oscar Reutersvärd in 1934, and found independently by Roger Penrose in 1958.[1] -

That seems indeed very random. Am I supposed to be seeing something?

@J-Jericho
Never will I forget the heat we experienced in Phoenix that June of 1968 when our HS band participated in a marching band competition. It was exactly that same temperature and we marched at 180-200 bpm tempo. Kids were losing their heads temporarily with heat stroke by the time we finished the mile long parade. It was great fun anyway -
@BigDub Cefalu in May is clement - nice sunny weather, but not too hot, with the sea already warm enough... outside dining in the evenings, with wonderful seafood...
My wife, enjoying a sefood platter (with local oysters!) nd the local frizzante wine...
