Looks crisp and cold George, love the downward frosted willow branches against the bridge.

Love the spiky branches which enhance the feeling of frostiness George.

A quite different palette but so effective. Love all the subtle colours suggesting the frost.

Beautifully done George, love the limited palette.

Thank You very much for commenting Jenny, The limited palette started as a wash of purple except for the grass banks which were green and raw umber (splodges). then a Sepia wash was laid over the purple of the tree, the water and the bridge and then (heaven forbid! ) a light wash of Ivory Black put on top of this, allowing under colours to show through before adding Chinese White.
