Painted this one from some photos I took earlier this year. I'll see if I can include a couple.

Please reduce the image to 40% for a full view. The pic is 60 X 50 cm's. Too big really. Sorry about that.
I'l try a different setting on my camera.

Quite a varied palette, mac. It required some mixing.

Phthalo and Prussian blue, crimson, titanium white, sap green, a variety of mixed greys.

Black: Prussian blue, deep red, primary yellow, burnt umber. No premixed black used.

I've a few adjustments to make, one of which will be a large bird in flight in the foreground.

The picture is 60 X 50cms and it doesn't really show in this photo, plus the colours and clarity are sharper in actuality. (they all say that) :)
