both are splendid. i really like the almost "pointillist" style handling of the leaves. The distant light on the background trees just makes them pop.

I've had to dial back the saturation to try to make the colour believable
Peter, we just don't get such vibrant colour here in the UK normally. With the sun on it, it was so vivid I honestly would expect people to assume I'd increased the saturation to get the look. As it happens, the opposite is true.
The sun creates all kinds of amazing light. In my painting classes I teach to paint what the light does to the subject, not the color of the objects...Anything is possible in sunlight. Peter
