This is another of those landscapes that does not of necessity benefit from sunshine and blue skies. This is John Wayne country, the big country, the land of the best westerns - excluding Clint's spaghetti ones. I like the simple colour scheme, the forbidding dark towers, and the scale of this landscape, accentuated by the small white car.
