distant mountains
Hazy faraway summits
Mountains seen from far away, appearing as hazy silhouettes on the horizon.
The phrase evokes a sense of mystery, longing, or unreachable goals: The distant mountains turned purple in the evening light.
In landscape painting and photography, distant mountains provide depth and atmospheric perspective, their details softened by intervening air.
