You can see the latest sneak peek WIP of Autumnal Queen over on my art blog~! I'd love advice on how to colour water as I am totally clueless!

well, the weatherman said this weekend would be the worst storm of the year. I dont know what the hell he was taking, because it was freaking beautiful! Because he said that, I woke up too late on Saturday to go shooting (it really was beautiful.... actually quite annoyed about this lol). I did have a really productive day though which was great

Today was just stunning, clear blue skies - of course I was dying to go shooting! I visited my Grandma Mary first thing with my mum, and that was really nice. She's not doing so good though so I really hope she feels better soon Afterwards I was pretty much walking out the door to go shooting wheeeeen... instead I chanegd my mine and went for a hike with my parents instead!

And wow! It was far too amazing an opportunity to pass up!! The sun was cracking the flags as we say here in Yorkshire, it was just a stunnign day, and the south winds had brought uncharacteristically warm weather for this time of year... For November, to have such a stunning day.... I couldnt pass up! I really missed not shooting but it was totally worth it!

The Wharfe river was very high and in full flow, autumn has brought a carpet and ceiling of gold and copper in the wood and it was just stunning. I went further up the river than I've ever been before, and caught my first glimpse of Barden Tower from the valley (an old ruin - see below, this is a googled photo btw, I take no credit!)



I also saw for the first time the most elaborate footbridge across the river I will probably ever see in my life!!!

Can you believe anyone would go to this much effort for a footbridge?!?! ... Oh.. damnit. I cant find a picture that shows the true magnitude of the effort that went into this bridge. I'll try remember to get a pic off my phone to show you!

Anyway, It was a fantastic afternoon, after on route home we went to see my Aunt and Uncle, and their son and his daughter was there, it was lovely to see her, she's almost one year old and walkign now... time flies!

Anyway, I have to run lol! Hope youre well Let me know if you can offer any advice on how to colour the water on that Autumn Queen picture... so stumped! Bye for now, and heres to many more awesome weekends!
