A good composition Paul, I like buildings obscured by nature.

Thank you all for your kind comments. They do look great when partially covered up by nature Andy as you say , some that certainly catches my eye. The colours unfortunately have lost something in the photo process they are not quite as vibrant.

A4 watercolour in A3 mount of a old barn with a dead oak tree at sunset . An imaginary scene that I came up with I’m sure inspired by the hundreds of old photos I look at , I think I have a building in mind then add a tree thst I’ve seen and build up the image that way . Can I claim it’s imaginary or should I say inspired by several photos , sketches etc. still working on loose images but can’t do that with a tree like this.
