Nature blends its colours
Since the sun has set below the horizon the quality and colour of light is changing quickly. Very soon the greys will be overtaken by the blues.
William Charles Piguenit (1836-1914), the first Tasmanian born artist of note, would have loved this scene. He wouldn't have had the time to commit it to canvas, and although he used the camera, the exposure would have been in minutes and there was no colour.
Once again my title comes from a beautiful quote by Piguenit which could easily be applied to this scene:
"There are numberless times when we look at the landscape when it is almost impossible to say what the colours are that one uses. Nature blends them with such marvelous beauty and indefiniteness that it is hard to say where one colour begins and the other ends."
