Winter Landscape

22 February 1948
Walk with Grock in the snow: Having observed the remarkable camouflage of animals in snow in patches, and having watched Mr Crouch’s cows in the heather and gorse, I decided to have a quick go at a picture of such, so started a 20x24 but did not get as far as I had hoped owing to bad light.
