ERLESTOKE Sun catching the field, light snow on the slope in the distance. For once it was a cloudless day and I tried to capture the light in the middle ground, with the far hill casting it's shadow on the snowy slopes. Unfortunately I was standing in shade to paint this, got very chilly - temp about -2deg!

View from Longleat towards Frome.
That blue sky disappeared about a minute or two minute after I started painting.

Autumn Poplar trees at Blackdog Crossroads.
Another chance to paint these lovely trees which I enjoy seeing all year round as they change with the seasons.
Here is a painting of them I did 3 years ago, a wider view.

Blackfriars Bridge, London

View of St Pauls, Blackfriars Bridge and the City of London.
It was a disgusting rainy day, a fine drizzle and very cold, uniform dull light and so grey. Not inspiring.  Also trying to come to grips with a compex cityscape and the angle of zoom/perspective - far too close in here I feel.
