You've done it again; this is so evocative. It almost feels as if I could step into that field. Thanks for another wonderful work.

What a delight to receive a snapshot of what summer should be like on a rainy morning here... Think I need a holiday somewhere sunny!

Julian, Ah, you've captured the distant mountains so well, with such ease. Wonderful! Please forgive me for asking a technical question, but I'm trying to paint the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina in the US, and I struggle with lightening and graying the mountains to make them recede, but not making them so bright they pop forward in space. Please, give me a hint or two to create this depth in a landscape! Many thanks!!
