DescriptionUnstretched. Image of a white house on the side of a river in the French countryside. The image uses light and fresh colors: white and light blue shade the house, sky, and river, and light green mixes with dark green to create the foliage surrounding the river. The simplicity of the scene is textured by the shading, minimal use of colors, and depth of image (from a short cropping of grass at the bottom, to the river leading into the white house in the distance).
