To get to the farm house which houses Outhouse Studios, one must pass a minimum of two treacherous curves. This is the scene from one of the approaches.

I focused on the section where three strips of different crops intersect with a good sized hill. It never seemed that far away driving by. In fact, I was surprised one day seeing a crew walking at the top of hill – just how small they looked and therefore far away.

The people in the top far right corner – they looked like worry dolls – so I didn’t get too involved in making them look like anything more.

From a printing standpoint, I actually printed this very large 32×40" – it worked but there was no significant improvement over what you could see in the 13×19" print. The original e-canvas did not warrant such an enlargement – and I will only offer this as an art print up to 24×30" for that reason.
