I climbed down a small embankment and set up my gear before this beautiful scene. I studied the area and decided on my motif and positioning of elements. The sun was bright and there was a slight breeze. As I sketched I heard the sounds of the rolling river and nature all around. I was in the shade so it was quite comfortable. I liked how the bend in the river was flanked by two large trees and the scattering of rocks added a little more to the scene as well as the bridge in the distance. Enjoy!
