mainly landscapes

 Think the square composition works best now . . .
 that was after playing with this one . . .


Which I've now decided works best as a more cropped view . . .


 But today's been about some ariel views of West of Alice . . . quite big and out of where I'm used to being but kind of stimulating and intriguing because of that . . .

So playing with a different comp. and profile just to see . . . 
 
 and not forgetting the camels of course . . .

Geof

 Realised I needed to reduce his head!  And his shoulder too (which was less traumatic)
 Head's better but now working on getting the relationship between place and sitter happening:  want to get more of the sense of him in the shade of the tree and the hot bright hills behind him (where he used to play as a kid!) there and present but bleached out and hot looking.
Worked on head area (hard to tell at the distance) and getting the checks happening to create volume in the shirt.  Still not sure whether I'll knock the clothing back to bring out the head and arms yet.  Will see how things go when I'm happier with the landscape.
