A throwback to a few years back in a location that was once the gardens at a Rothschild mansion.

Here are two images of the same scene, a few months apart - what a difference it makes.

Which is your favourite?

I have to say, I think I prefer the winter one. That's mostly because the post-sunset glow has really brought out the texture in the scene.

I was painting in Hambleden valley this morning, trying to catch the snow before it disappears. It was so cold my fingers were permanently numb even with thermal gloves on, which encouraged me to paint faster. Oil on canvas panel 20 X 25 cm.
