Cows - in Shade - in Light

New Spot.

Not very often I'll find a new great spot. Once you've got your 'go-to-places'...

But we drove passed this spot in the evening, and I was so happy to find this. Shadow from trees, cows partly under, it's just perfect. But, you'll have to remember to time it well, as the cows went through bushes to enter here (left), they were called to go home by the farmer quick (right). I could paint for hours there. Cows continuously walking by, you can study so much. 
Be fasttt!
I painted one in the shadow, one lazy one that stayed until the farmer was really angry and one in the light, the one I saw first. The shadow-placed cow -of course- walked out of that tree corridor, it moved. The trick is then to wait for the next one to solve/finish the shape.

Of course, I had to return, but time moves on, and further away places get skipped again, sunset time changes:
"Find something, paint something!" : )
Maybe next year again. The spot needs returning to.
