Charcoal on Paper
Here, I was experimenting with charcoal techniques and like you I am constantly trying to learn and try out different techniques to bring about the effects I am looking for. Notice that perspective is the key here. Incase you could not tell there is a ledge in the foreground which is gazing out to the vastness of the lake and mountains at the distance. I learned to accentuate this effect by the fences as they go into the distance. Looking back at it now, I can see that there was not much tonal balance in the drawing that I could have achieved to give it a more of a realistic feel.
