Pauline, this is a very nice composition, but you need to push some color in the foreground to fulfill Richard's lesson.  Tone down some of your darks in the distance a little so that it recedes and really warm up and push your golden yellows in the foreground.  Look at Richard's examples.  This will take your eye back into the painting along your path.  Leave the path fairly light compared to the grasses and it will guide you back along it.  Look at Michael Severin's painting of the Melones Trail and what he has done with his foreground color.    This is a nice view and a small amount of work will make it pop.   Stu

Thought i'd just dive in and have a go at this one,  This is my first attempt, hoping to have another shot at a different view.
