As mentioned in the posts relating to the trip there was some sea fog but by chance it cleared for the period while on Staple Island but as can be seen in the painting it's just in the distance (upper left). I really enjoyed this painting, not as much as the visit though, although the mass of rock took longer to paint than expected.
While working at this location one of the Shags kept getting up off it's nest and then having a walk around but while doing was stealing nesting material for other birds nests...
