I haven't seen the original but this looks good and atmospheric Nigel.

Paul Talbot-Greaves selected Nigel's work for critique saying: 'You achieved a lovely atmosphere here Nigel and really well done with the blurry distance. I’m not sure the left hand tree is necessary, but if it is there for balance, make it simple and un-detailed. This will help to put more focus on the right hand section. Also, really strive to mix your greens on the painting surface. If you use a tube green, add other relative colours on the paper such as yellow ochre, cerulean blue, burnt sienna, cobalt blue'.
