Description

A broad panorama of rolling hills and ridges fills the frame, with mountains rising in the far distance under a hazy sky. Slopes in the middle distance show scattered trees, bushes and terrace-like lines. A large pale rocky outcrop with a rough surface occupies the lower right foreground, suggesting the photographer stood on high ground.
