I found my way to the Wallomsac River in North Hoosick, where the water was raging!

My scene, the light would remain constant and the only things that would change were the shadows.
Here is the panel there are light shadows on it, which are kinda distracting.....
As my session progressed the light on the panel changed and made for some tactile adjustments.
Toward the end of the session the sun cooperated and moved off my panel, I appreciated that!
I had time today, and spent close to 2 1/2 hours! I would use a lot of it working on the truss, which fought with the background.
Here we go....
The shadow changed since I started!
Looking down.
looking across, I might try to set up on that far bank and have the scene back lit.
It's hard to see, but I'm on the edge of a steep embankment, maybe 50-75 feet high! I had painted down by the river last November.
I wasn't sure if this was private, but it didn't seem like it, so I went ahead, there were no posted signs ans being next to two bridges, the road and the river......
A beautiful river! Well done.
