At Sharlands Creek

Again, one of those glimpses, from out of the corner of the eye. As the road into town crosses Sharlands Creek, this fractional view of the river catches the eye. I have always intended to stop someday. Today I did, and for once the longer more leisurely look was not disappointing. I set my easel up at the side of the road and began working. It is a busy road, and before I had finished I must have chatted to half a dozen neighbours who had stopped to examine progress. Everybody seemed happy enough, so I think it must have captured something of the mood of the light under the willows.
