No sooner said than done, Ref Pic is HMS ERIN in dock at Invergordon from the air , I lowered the view point to sea level and used my imagination.

Thank you Carlos, you have to think differently when painting a night scene.

I love this scene Jim. From the water reflections, to the sky and then the dock/boats details - beautiful, quiet atmosphere.

That's terrific imagination then, Jim, wonderful work, and that sky is really something.

Re: Invergordon at dusk
Thanks Marty, the imagination came in to lowering the view point from an aerial photo
http://www.theinvergordonarchive.org.../number369.asp
to sealevel and making it night time, but not too dark as to obscure the detail
Jim
