First day out painting in 2014

Work and bad weather has kept me in so far this year.  I can handle most weather except a constant nagging wind, however last weekend my problem  (or excuse) has that the sky was too blue and the light harsh.  This morning went to Fen Drayton lakes ( see  http://www.rspb.org.uk/reserves/guide/f/fendraytonlakes/about.aspx  )  and completed a couple whilst dodging the hail and rain. Pleased with the colours although I will have to sort some of the tones before they are finished – could be a good year.

It’s raining now!
