The Clarity of the clear blue air.
The Purity of the blanket of softness.
The Silence of a land in waiting.

Protecting,
Cleansing,
Renewing
for the Spring of our tomorrow.

Released for the Winter Edition Art Pack [link] - Go check it out, there are some great artists including *niteangel, `computerologist, ~ pixiegal, ^hesitation, *syragon and many more.

Rendered in Terragen and colour corrected in PS. I would have liked to have been able to release a print version but have some serious banding issues in the blue gradients which are too obvious in the larger version, if anyone knows of a great way to overcome this, please let me know. I added noise and blur in this, but it is not good for the print.

Well, as always, I hope you appreciate this work and enjoy looking at it as much as I did creating it, and I would love to know your thoughts...

Update: Those darn cloud reflections..hmm, fixed for the print release. I still hope you all enjoy
