Not very light study

This is actually from a couple of years ago, which is why the trees are shorter.

Quinaig & Loch Nedd, 10:10pm, 27th July, looking East

My picture is far patchier than the photo, but I just wanted to do it quickly.

I had a number of photos, all with different levels of darkness - I don't know how dark it really was.

It's interesting how much darker this is than the one taken 20 mins earlier (on a different day). The mist will be the reason.

A new Paralympic sport?

Headless wheelchair rugby.

Another light study

Haven't done one of these for a while.

Quinaig & Loch Nedd, 8:30pm, 20th July, looking East

I like the colours in this one.

One hump or two?

How to remember the difference between a dromedary and a bactrian camel:

(I know they shouldn't really look identical apart from the humps.)

The good thing about drawing dinosaurs

You can do them any colour you like to fit in with your compostion.

Apparently, however, they do know what colour some prehistoric birds are, because they can do tests on the chemicals in the fossilised feathers (or something).

Eeny meeny miny mo

As far as young children are concerned, decisions made by this method are as binding as the laws of the Medes & Persians. This is very useful.

When faced with important choices (such as an argument over who gets the only green folder), I have found they will tend to accept happily and without question the results of eeny meeny miny mo. Strange but true!

Quinaig Light

A couple of light studies. I was getting sick of the high flats, so now we move a bit further north, with a couple of views of Quinaig (the mountain) and Loch Nedd.

Quinaig & Loch Nedd, 9:50pm, 15th July, looking East

This view is one of the reasons my family and I have gone back to the same place every summer for the last 17 years. Every time you look out the window it's different, as the colours on the mountain, loch and sky are constantly changing - so expect more pictures in the coming days...
 
As with the others, these are not meant to have any artistic merit as pretty pictures - it's just a study of the colours. I enjoy doing studies like this as a morning exercise, as all the info's there - I'm not tempted to go off and do research and never get the rest of my work done!
