A wall leads through the shot to a small church which stands in front of a sunset sky full of purple and orange hues. There are contrails from aircraft criss-crossing the scene. In the foreground a puddle on the path catches a reflection of the top of the church tower and the sunset behind it.Image source, Rebekah

A patchwork of fields runs to the horizon. In the foreground, frost can be seen on the grass and in the distance mist covers the fields and trees. The rising sun creates a golden glow in the sky above the fields.Image source, Smithy
