Scene notes:

The landscape is two-thirds of the frame, a forest of hills and ridges which extend into a vast plain. The humid air allows the radiant intensity to glow on these lands, the vapor both absorbs and emits some of the light in all directions. The sun moves lower into the dusk behind the horizon, leaving Cirrus clouds illuminated red and pink from below, and then, night falls.
