Iron Age burial area

[Dune]

I was asked to make a birdseye view of a wide Iron Age landscape with 'celtic fields', farms and a bunch of burial mounds. Birdseye has been delivered, but I got curious and took the camera down and made a low perspective of a small part of the same landscape, with a 'meeting place' in front, and some men working up a new burial mound in the back.

Fantastic!!! I love the fork in the road especially. Once again an example of your ancient landscape skills (ancient landscape, not ancient skills!! )

[Dune]

Thanks, Hannes.

Beautiful!

Very natural and very moody.
To me it feels like a afternoon before the sun sets, impressive how you transfer such feelings just with an image.
Also the road which Hannes already mentioned is fantastic!

You are the Master of Pastoral settings; the imagery portrays a sense of a pace of life that while difficult, was more in harmony with the natural surroundings, and shows a keen empathy for the people and their lives.  Your landscapes are true to Nature with lush and varied vegetation, shade by a balance of tree types creating a calmness missing in our frenetic modern society.  A treat for the eyes and a pleasure to behold!

I love the lighting, the oak tree (oak?) foreground right and the mix of wild grasses and flowers!

Brilliant. The vegetation is magnificent!

Thanks guys. And this low camera view wasn't even intended, so I just used some 'coarse' grasses for the larger overview, including the internal grass population.

Love the colours in this with the lighting. Great work!

Echoing comments above, and there is much to be commended about the composition and mood.
