Incredible intensity of colours Alan, I can feel the heat. The figures and trees give a great sense of scale....it must be a magnificent sight.

That beautiful intense blue makes this really stand out Alan. Figures are just right, light catching the monolith at the top...everything working very well. Excellent!

It's all been said. Vibrant in all ways.
