The image here is from a painting "At the water's edge" by Emmanuel Benner (1836 – 1896), a French artist {and noted decorator of ceramics}, and I really like it. I wrote this tune one lunchtime while sitting in the sun on a rock by the pond on the business park where I work in Stirling. Something of the surroundings seems to have made its way into the tune, with sound effects like frogs and insects appearing and a real watery vibe (in my opinion anyway). It's the first time, other than travelling on trains, where the location seems to have influenced a tune as I have been creating it.
