"And here is one from Australia. A lot would question the colour of the water but believe me it is this colour if not even brighter :) Big Riv's Reflections - 10x8" oil on board "

"Beautiful painting. There is much to like here, but I think the broad strokes of yellow green up agains the orange make the painting. Nice work!"
