Seeing horizontally seeing vertically

A recent trip to Gua Musang, in the middle of Pahang jungle (West Malaysia), allows me to see 'very horizontally'. That really means ten to twenty kilometres of space because of these scattered protruding limestone hills. Yet, one would feel dwarfed when standing at the base of such tall and magnificent creation of mother nature.
So, there is really a limitation to our seeing.

Only the artist can help foreshorten this twenty kilometre of sight and space.
