Stream - a watercolour sketch

Idid this sketch some time ago, just came across it and thought that I would share it with you all. this simple little sketch using some basic watercolour paints was done in situ, loosely put together. I guess my idea was to try and capture the reflections in the stream. I often stop at this bridge, over the stream, which leads into a field used for growing a rotation of crops such as wheat, barley, cabbages and peas. One reason I stop is to spot the endangered water voles, mini beavers which appear in the spring. Mallards also appear at this time and proceed to swim up and down this section of the stream and are later accompanied by tiny ducklings.
