The lavender rows create a leading line that draws the eye towards the horizon. In the middle ground, there are rolling hills that gently undulate, adding a sense of peaceful topography to the landscape. The background features majestic mountains, with the sun positioned just at the cusp of the mountain ridges, casting a warm, golden light across the scene.

The overall impression is one of serene beauty and tranquility, with the natural world bathed in a warm, glowing light.
