In the foreground is a winding stream with stepping stones and bouldered banks supporting groves of winter trees, pines, evergreen shrubs and grasses. The stream wends its way back to a cloud capped valley formed by the gentle slopes of massive rounded peaks and tors dotted with sparse habitat. Further mountain slopes climb into the heavens, fading to distance in traditional Chinese aerial perspective. less
