COTTONWOOD ON THE BANK


Boat traffic is picking up. The shadows on the cottonwood across the cove make interesting patterns, down the tree and across the sand. I flick a brush mark across the end of the island to show the wavelet created by the boat wakes.

Beautiful, Karen! The light on the trees is just right and lovely.

Thanks!
It was a challenge. While we were there, the trees changed from backlit, to sidelit, to frontlit.

Thank you!
I have twelve novel manuscripts "under my bed." Do you think I should dust them off?
