Two hot air balloons float at different heights over a wide patchwork valley of hedgerow-divided fields. The nearer balloon is deep blue with a muted amber band, the smaller copper one farther off and drifting its own way. Warm late afternoon light glows through the envelopes and stretches long shadows across the meadows, in a lush pastoral palette of olive, gold, rose and soft blue sky.
