Mountain Vista. Capertee Valley. NSW. #2

I spent 3 weeks travelling around this valley and painting scene's like this. The light here is amazing for painting. The sandstone bluff's light up the morning and afternoon light waiting to be captured in paint. It was the light on the bluffs that caught my eye for this one.
