I have had three paintings going at once and was able to put what I belive to be the finishing touches on this one this am. This is a scene that I painted about a year and a half ago in acrylics and always felt like I didn't capture the moodiness of the piece or the softness of the humidity in the distant trees. I tightened up the crop and painted it larger.
Thanks for looking. Comments always welcome.

Beautiful, Les. I think you captured the moodiness just right.
Love the relections

Lovely! You've nailed the 'swampesque' atmosphere.
The muted, neutral colors creates mood and mystery
Fine composition Less! Interesting contrast between the hard lines of the bridge and the soft natural background. Nice that the bridge itself goes more or less from dark to light, creating a focus point this way. The light and shadow gives the scene the calm feel that I would connect to a river in nature.
He! And I like the header on your blog! :)
