Gorgeous! I count 10 ridges in those rolling hills, up to the mountainous range. Is that right?

Layers and layers of mountains... So beautiful.

Glad you like it!

Knatolee,
Yep, I love the bright greenery in bluish background of the mountains faraway

Silent Moments,
Yep, At Beragala (Just below Haputhale Gap) you can see very far. That is why I get this good scenery.

Clo,
Hope to see you again very soon. Take care and my best wishes to your family too.

Amila,
Yes, it is pathana type grass land and I like this picture a lot :)
