    I just love that WOO :luv::luv::luv:
    As an amateur artist (no skill, no talent) what interests me is the contrast between light and dark, but I can't do it in that style.
    My husband can do the skies and stonework.
    I'm sure he would just love to have a go at it.
    And how did you get that moon in there ???????
    Could we have your kind permission to print the image and reproduce ( as a painting with artistic license)
    PLEASE , PRETTY PLEASE.

    No, you are doing fine :thumb:, it's some thing I can't do as I haven't got HD or a good enough camera (yet)).:)

    Lovely photo Woo. We took Meg for a walk along the Medway M2 bridge on Saturday (strange venue for a walk I know, but we enjoy it!) anyway, it was very rainy and misty so we had a lovely atmospheric view of Rochester castle in the background, unfortunately my camera isnt good enough to photograph it!
