Description "Prologue to the Legacy of Darkness"

Download the High-Res to get the best possible impression of the image!

This is what I would describe as the image capturing the mood and feeling of my unknown "Legend of Aaldauria" Fantasy story (Dreaming of visualizing it one day).
Basically it expresses a dark mood.. rainy, desaturated, epic.. In a way you could say Zelda meets LOTR told in a Tim Burton style Stop-Mo...
I just love how dramatic mountains can make a landscape appear, in harmony with the sky.

Now this is what i consider my favorite photo... i took it while leaving the art class rooms... basically this is the view one would get to see if you were to zoom a little...
And yes that's an UFO passing by in the far left of the image.

If you feel like use this as a base for Matte-painting, feel free to just fire away at it, but be sure to let me know!

Any thoughts?

Beautiful mountain! Excelent shot!
When I was young enough not to be completely captivated in the art of photography, from my very home one could look at a scenery just like that. Now with my camera in my hands, around my home they've built like a million business and residential buildings and so on, so the virgin landscape is completely torn apart, hidden behind roofs and antenas.
Anyway, I've taken quite enough photos of Vitosha, my mountain, from different angles and places - there are plenty of them . Once illuminated in gold by the rising sun, other time surrounded in mists. This picture reminds me of my window view, when it was clear, not today when I see buildings

Thank you very much!
I'm sorry the view was lost to the greed of human occupation of nature...
It sounds beautiful, both the mist and golden shroud!

What a view! ...this is something you see on a regular basis?

I wish i could be so lucky... all i get to see are tiny bumps in the earth, barely negotiable as hills... awesome stuff man, nice wide photo. Would look great involved in a painted of some sorts.

Well yes, there's several mountain formations at the coast... Lots of them, fjords and all!
And often it's cloudy(and rainy)... So dramatic views are to be seen regularly.

Yeah I am really damn happy about growing up here...

Thanks Mate!

nice! You should use it as a base, it's pretty epic.

Thanks man!
May do so one day...
And if you think this looks epic, the story I'd visualize would be beyond that
