kiki2: you «uncovered» me correctly! I envy your capability of analyzing the different elements of an image. And your synthesis is accurate: the landscape is European, and the photographer am I. Congratulations!
Traveller: yes, this is the West, but not the American one, but the (South-)West of Europe. I had led you astrayon purposewith my link to the «*American* Landscape Art»; sorry! Thanks, anyway, for your friendly commendation of this picture!
It's a beautiful landscape.. looks european to me. Guessing db for artist ... it's a good picture and the subtle fading hills and mountains + reds in the sky reminds me of his pictures.
