Moonrise? Sunrise?

By Vickilane
Moonrise? Sunrise?
Who knows? Not I. Nor do I know who took the picture (below) that I painted from. It's from the coast of NC, where John used to keep a sailboat, so he probably took it. Or our friend Vic, who also has a boat there, and is an excellent photographer. 

I have always liked the composition and the serenity of the photo, so I tried to paint it. But it kept looking too pink and washed out. So I deepened the colors with some Pthalo Blue and set it aside. When I returned to it, I found some tiny paint smears in the sky. Not removeable.Hence the addition of a bird (crow? hawk?) being harassed by some smaller fowl.
