And here's me thinking it was Snowdonia. It's beautifully simplistic.

A vivid reproduction of the piece and quiet of the mountains blurring at the horizon. Fantastic!

Absolutely beautiful, Carole! I especially like the feeling of ruggedness and loneliness in the good sense of the term. It's an image that inspires a feeling of awe!
