- Description:
- Looking from just above ground level at mountains in the distance. The ground is covered in small, dark rocks of uneven size and texture; there is a path from the bottom center frame that looks like a light colored dotted line. It goes straight for a while, and the snakes left and right until it vanishes into the horizon. The scale of the mountains is hard to tell, they many be large mountains far away, or smaller, closer hills. The sky above the mountains is a light tone, and featureless: either smooth, complete cloud cover or no clouds at all.
- Notes:
- Mounted gelatin silver print.
