Erie in a mellow drama kind of way. These kinds of scenes I think are appealing because of the juxtiposition of the deep and warm tones, textures and framing. Looking at this I'm really not influenced by the old house and what it represents, but rather by it's lines and textures and shape. Although it is interesting how the mind seems to desire a familiar object associated with humans injected into a nature scene.

Pretty! I really like the framing, though it's a pity that the tree is cut off at the top. Compromises, compromises...
