I am certain there is nothing more conducive to letting your mind run free than being out in open spaces.

Perhaps it does not matter if it is some vast open wilderness or some great city from afar. It is the space between the viewer and the scene which make all the difference.

In this image I wanted to evoke the same dreamy feeling, of being lost in thought that open space creates by pushing out the exposure and reversing the vignette.
