Cranborne Chase

A view across the rolling chalk downs of the Cranborne Chase near Tollard Royal in the southernmost tip of Wiltshire.
Cranborne Chase is a Chalk plateau in central southern England, straddling the counties of Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire. The plateau is part of the English Chalk Formation and is adjacent to Salisbury Plain and the West Wiltshire Downs in the north, the Dorset Downs to the south west and the South Downs running south east. The scarp slope of the hills is to the west, such as at Shaftesbury, and to some extent along the edge of the Vale of Wardour to the north.

    Spread pathway.. leading lines… trees along the path.. are good combinations. The shadowing effect fills the right side that gives me a presence.. but a presence of what… imagination can let it run.
