A Kingdom Amongst The Clouds

In a world where animals are praised as gods by their guests. Their pantheon carries palaces, cities, and castles, graciously on their backs as precious jewels. Decorated with the local treasures of the earth and built by the finest craftsmen, only the most beautiful is expected. Withstanding the force of the oceans, snowy mountains, endless green to the aridest deserts, The inhabitants take great pride to be part of, and have a deep love for, their animal that carries them to the wonders of the earth. Created for the fantasy book I'm currently writing. All elements in this work are manually photographed by me with a medium format 40MP Hasselblad camera across Europe, after which carefully digitally painted them together by hand with a tablet and brush.
