About this image

My greatest and latest adventure in Oblivion was... in Elsweyr !

About the story of this picture, It was the only screenshot i really took in this region... A miraculous shot near the border


I remembered some great location like the huge City-Fortress of Dune lost in the desert

A  precious river surrounded by a magnificient landscape I shared 15 years ago (https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/images/52284)

The lively City-Oasis of Orcrest

The South with an amazing coast, a real paradise and the best place for a sunbathe !

The terrible moment when  I was lost in a Cavern/maze near a sanctuary

I just remember now the City of Riverhold located at the top of a mountain offering a great scenic view !

But the most memorable thing was the Savannah wildlife created from scratch ! That's probably why this image exist, Seeing elephants and zebras here was a shock !

A lot of great souvenir of this mod, Probably today the only reason to relaunch this game... Oblivion is a masterpiece but the vanilla region of Cyrodil a was little bit boring compared to Morrowind... But Shivering Isles was a great addon and bring a great atmosphere 

Thanks to the Nexus Community !

Picture took in June 2014 and edited to minimize the hair clipping
(Sorry about my english who's not my native language... And of course I'm really excited about the announcement of The Witcher 4!)

    I enjoyed your description, of course Elsweyr always will be a good trip when you need a warm holliday far from Cyrodiil. 
    Thank you
    -The hair is well redone.

      Thanks for you comment ! I really agree about your vision of Elswey. An exotic world far from Cyrodil where you can take a vacation with great souvenirs ! Even Skyrim didn't offer a paradise like this ! Rudra had a great potential but still unfinished and empty. And the Graycowl of Nocturnal despite some great locations lacks something...

      About the Hair and editing, I'm not a fan of enhancement and modification, I used to share my images without edits!
      That's unfortnatly why i'm not really satisfied of my last shot... I Usually take my time to chose the right scene with a specific pose in paying attention to details... yeah it was rushed ...

      But my next picture will probably be my last share, and i'm really satisfied about it
      I knew the moment I took it that it will be my last one.
      A final farewell to Oblivion !

      I already stopped playing Oblivion in 2014 and Like I said i don't think i will restart a new adventure. In fact I never imagined to post something about Oblivion again. My last "creation" here date back to 2011...

      It's just my personal Thanks and farewell about this game, close my chapter where it all begans for me. 

      Your contribution are amazing ! The Lakeside Manor is wonderul and very detailled ! Just keep up the good work ! 
      I will try to keep an eye on your  effort. It's incredible to see a such dedicated community!

      And of course i Wish you an happy New Year!

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that really appreciates ''Elsweyr Deserts of Anequina''. Believe it or not, this year in July will be my 10th anniversary of finding out about Elsweyr Deserts of Anequina. I know the mod has been around since 2009, but it was not until 2015 since I first heard about mods for Oblivion. I had to wait years until I was finally able to get my PC. I do plan on possibly uploading some more images of my Breton character hanging out with my favorite Khajiits from this mod just to show my appreciation. Thank you for uploading this and God bless. 👍
