As Wejna said "when we got there, there was no there, there". It may have been Stein who said it, whatever. There are some great elements here, but nothing for the gaze to linger on.
Nice hills and fog! The lines of the hills and fog leads my eyes to the left, but once we reach the left side there's not much to look at. I would like something to rest my eyes on there!
