What a difference one month can make to a landscape. A bonus to have a local farmer ploughing the field.

Autumn gone.
Memories of a beautiful apple tree
Now carpeted by winter's cold creep.

Always busy. A chance to stand and stare. It was so fantastic to take about 15 minutes to quickly sketch this loco in a museum, and then complete it, with reference to a photograph, on the 3 hour coach journey back. Just a ballpoint.

While doing the sketch children were playing hide and seek and it was like a closing scene of the Benny Hill Show!!

The light was really this blue and I am quite amazed that the old squeaky camera captured this image. I used free software to stitch images together.
Happy New Year to all!
