I made a video it's here;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a49M-2e8OEU

I talk about my pallet, and color mixing.

I was here last winter, the bridge was still under construction. I went to Manchester, Vermont to drop off some paintings on my way back I couldn't settle on a spot, so I ended up here at a familiar one.

I'm using one of my new panels and I like it, it's a bit smoother, but not too much, and it feels right.

lights!

In addition to the bridge I liked the darkness of the water, and the wispy feeling of the mid range trees.




This is where I made the video.

A bridge like this is always tricky, I don't want to get too much detail, but need enough to pull it off. At the start there was some sun on the scene and that gave the bridge some dimension, By the end of the session, the clouds came and everything got flat.

There are some nice far hills, and the mid range has lots of variety in it, plus the scene composes itself.

Moving along......

This is where I ended up, notice the telephone pole, really needs to go last, and at one point it had been illuminated, and now it wasn't, so what to do?

Sight-size shot.

Easy.

This sign is at the bridge.




 Let me know if there were things you want me to fill in, I know there were a lot (a lot a lot) of omissions, I mean it's less than 7 minutes!
