Love this Thomas, it's the way that you have understated all those bits that the eye fills in, great work!!

Thank you Shelly! The painting does look better than the photo. It's remarkable that i didn't like it much when I finished it yesterday. Today it caught my eye... hey why don't you like me, you are no better than that ;-)

Ohhugh, this is a beautiful piece Thomas!  I can't stop looking at it!  You handled the light so well and your palate is rich and united.

oh now thats a great idea! Compressing the values, so many possibilities. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks Manneherrin. I tried to compress the values and painted the sky darker, so the focal spots pop out more.

this is my reference photo stolen from the web

This is a beautiful painting. I wish I could pop these masterpieces out like you can. Was this on a rainy day? The horizon sky seems a bit dark.

Thank you Cristina! I overlooked your comment...
Thank you Christine, Jessica, Steinunn and Aurelia!
I am glad about the positive feedback. It was more a fight and I was never really positive while doing it, without knowing why..

This is a beautiful painting Thomas.  Lovely brushwork, colour harmony and the way you make use of suggestion brushwork to do the figures.

Very expressive Thomas, love it!
