I was looking for some aerial perspective and found a photo from a trip to Nepal in 2010. This is my first attempt in a 15x20cm sketchbook with Khadi cotton rag paper. I will make a new larger version on Fabriano, which I figure will be easier for details and tonal values, but I rather like the palette in this one. I will look at it for a while to decide what to change in my next version. Any additional thoughts on that will be most welcome.

Update 14/4: Below is my second version of this view, this time on 19x28 cm Fabriano Artistico 300gsm rough. I tried to raise the contrast between fore- and background, and also define more of the mountain ridge. I am not altogether satisfied with the tree foliage, so all suggestions are as usual welcome.
