This is not a natural scene but one that has been formed by extensive quarrying in the area. LLangattock is in Wales, UK

I like the way the warm light plays off the cool grass. The right part of the sky is too bright IMO. I would burn it down some if the image has the detail to handle it. A polarizing filter would cut that haze a lot as well. I am assuming you didn't use one.

Sweeeeeet! The low-angle light is both soft and dramatic, and the hazy atmosphere creates an absolutely marvelous depth to this. That atmospheric depth and the brilliance of the background remind me of a painting by the 19th century masters of landscape painting. Those "painters of light" could not have created a more effective scene than this. :toast:
