Lovely sparkle on the water. An interesting scene painted with a lovely sense of depth.

Thanks Helen, I'm glad you like it. I enjoyed looking through your gallery and see you've been to Giverny. I'm visiting in May, so will no doubt be painting some waterlillies as well!

I have visited Krakow in Poland a number of times and spend a most enjoyable short stay there with my wife in 2007.
