Wast Water, English Lake District. by Bill Sutton

love this Bill, i have taken photos from very near the same spot, lovely image well done

lovely watercolour bill. good sky and colours.

That's the kind of view I often go for Bill. A very nice watercolour.

Nice work, Bill, I especially like the colourful sky and the mountains. A little of the sky colour in the water would make it even better.

That's a really nice painting. Love the sky and a good job done on the mountains.

Many thanks to each of you for your kind comments. Stephen, you are so right. Just shows the dangers of sticking too much to the photo details and then overlooking the obvious when you use a bit of imagination in a part of the painting without thinking it through. Much appreciated.

I love this spot, I think it's my favourite lake and I looked at this view at the end of August, although there wasn't any blue in the sky then... You have achieved a great feeling of distance and sense of drama with the beautiful lighting.

Thanks for your comments,Lesley..Much appreciated.
