You are absolutely right, Colline 🙂 In the Alps clouds are often menacing.

The music was written with the Rocky mountains in mind, but I think it works well here too 😉 These are north Italian, and are my favourite 🙂 Thank you, Linda!

Lovely scene, Paula, and love the mountain music. I wonder why I always have to stop the music before I can comment, otherwise my words all run into one another, with no spaces. 😕

Hi Sylvia 🙂 I have never heard of such a problem, and you say it happened before :S. Oh dear, I hope this will not prevent you from listening to music here (the one with my pencils/crayons was just for fun – I promise to be more selective in the future) ❤

I’m lagging behind your posts, trying to keep up with mine. Selfish, eh? I think landscape might be the most difficult to do in b&w because things tend to merge rather than stand out. However, you’ve done it – the moody, the detail, the shapes, and thank you sky! I particularly like the foreground detail. I have a few theme ideas, gleaned from my drive north – posted in due course, when time, notebook and charged iPad have a simultaneous existence in the same place.
