Desert & Horizon

Moon over Sand

No. 7 of 20 · free · 300 dpi

What you seeA pale full moon hangs in a sky that deepens from violet at the horizon to blue-black at the top. Two dune ridges in plum and near-black fill the foot of the frame.

What it meansThe desert after the heat has gone, lit only by the moon. The gradients keep it soft and still.

Where it worksMade for a bedroom. It is calm enough to be the last thing seen at night.
