The medium version of Bled Blue contains no water so has more of a feeling of being higher up in the mountains, and the low clouds feel somewhat closer than in the larger version. To me, this reminds me of that moment when you're directly in the middle of a long hike and you've got exactly as far to go as you've already come. Depending on how the walk's been, that can be both an exhilarating and overwhelming realisation at the same time... we've all been there!
