A See-Through - East

Start With What Moves.

We went to the east of Holland, there you have 'ridges' of higher trees, part pine forests, creating a far different horizon. Way darker, higher, not as flat as where we live. 

A see-through. In the morning. Great shadows on the path.  A white birch tree on the right. Darks created by the trees on the left.

The cows walked out of the picture too soon. That's unfortunate. I love having 1 or 2 more near. Yes, always learning. "Start the painting with what moves!"

Whether this is the light that you want to catch, or a beautiful cloud formation, or figures and cows. When they're 'perfect' as they show themselves: get them in FAST.
