Beautiful, Stephen, really glows. Love the silhouetted man and dog and the way you’ve done the layered hedge on the right.

this is wonderful and I really like how you've painted the figure and their dog. It's an absolute beauty of a painting Stephen.

Great colour contrasts, love those trees!

I think you've achieved it. Lovely painting Stephen.

Very good Stephen, that flash of golden sunshine brings life to it. Must admit I missed the figures until I read the others comments.

So much is so good in your painting and the figure and dog is an added bonus ! Impressive.

Gorgeous sunlight, and your painting of the distant trees has been beautifully handled.
