Black Mill from near Burton Bushes - very windy.

Plein air - oil on board 12 x 10"
Decided quite late, to take our dog for a walk, through Burton Bushes - to take advantage of sheltering from the high, gusty winds. I took my pochade box with me, yet did not attempt a painting from inside the woods after all.  From a sheltered spot on the Westwood a distant Black Mill can be seen,with large trees on the right balancing the picture. This was done very quickly. From the same spot further to the left, Beverley Minster can be seen and I will try and capture it another day. Saw lots of fellow dog walkers, emerging bluebells and, in the wood we saw white anemones ( Anemone nemorosa).
Happy painting.
