I decided this was going to be a more tonal painting less colour more about tonal shapes and brush marks. Leaving some of the board colour showing gives a sense of unity. The foreground trees are on the golden line - where it's the most pleasing to the eye - about a third in.

Love the simplicity of this composition in the winter browns and creams as I did when you painted it after a snowfall.
