Sally, this is a lovely composition.  Very nicely painted, love the lead into the painting.

I watched Bob Ross on TV last night as well Sean, and couldn't believe the speed with which he started and finished a beautiful painting, and how fast he was with a palate knife.  It was also a beautiful composition. He is on tonight as well 7.00 or 7.30?  Hoping to watch him again.

Saw the programme on Churchills paintings as well Sean (not much else to do except watch TV every evening!).  I never realised he was so good at painting.

You nicely feature the primaries with blues, reds and a strong yellow wall.     You  seem  to have a 

wealth of urns to feature, as here and  also with the sunshade.   I'm not strong on blogs myself, as you ask.  

Interesting painting stuff on the TV last night, with Bob Ross dashing off an oil painting in half an hour on  BBC 2,

and Andrew Marr presenting a programme on Churchill's  paintings, one of which recently sold for

two million euros:  https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-30530792

That reminds me of the path in to Listoke Sally, the red shrub really brings it all alive. Im waiting to see a tractor next ?

I find the blogs easy to comment on once I use my laptop, on the phone I think I have commented but its not submitted, must be slower or something. I just go right over to the Blog tab on the right of the main page and work down from there. I wouldnt say there is a limit on text, I think previously we were asked to keep our photos small in terms of space on the network. I was thinking would Trim make a good virtual challenge, or maybe somehwere we wouldnt normally get to as that would make it more of a challenge for using google maps anyway,
