Photographer's Note
The little clump of trees are Cookworthy Knapp,a well known local landmark.
Below is a brief extract from a local artist`s web page:
Coming Home or Cookworthy Knapp.
This small copse of trees can found on the A30 just before the Devon/Cornwall border near Lifton. For me it has always meant 'Coming Home'. As I was growing up it was 30 minutes from home, now I regularly run past the copse on one of my early morning jogs near the village of Lifton. It is such an iconic view for so many people, locals and holiday makers alike. The copse is known by many different names by people living in and visiting the area. 'Cornwall Beyond, Grandma's Trees, Nearly Home' and The Unicorns Wood are a few I've heard of recently .

Hello Leslie,
What a beautiful landscape picture!
Wonderful how that small group of trees, the animals and the setting sun are placed exactly on the dividing line between the hill and the sky.
Very attractive colours.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Leslie, I must look out for this copse of trees the next time that I am out that way.
The sky is like an artists paint box, there are so many colours there.
Taken at just the right time, with some colour still in the landscape.
Regards Jean.

Hello Les,
That was an evening of enchanting colours which you captured well in this well balanced composition. The trees make a stunning impression standing on top of the low hill, the sun balancing on the edge of the slope and a few animals grazing in between. There's an amazing contrast between the orange/pink sky and the green ground. It's one of those photos looking like a 19th century painting.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello dear Les, Wow, what a marvelous landscape picture. Fantastic colours of the sunset sky, nice group of threes (a bit like in Tuscany) and these tiny silhouettes of the cows. Wonderful.

Hi Leslie
Wow! I can see why you stopped for this one. A lovely wide view that's some sky you have here combined by such a lovely line up of trees - they look like dancers.
Lovely softness and composition when all the elements have come together so well. Delightful shot, Congrats
Best regards
