The Story Behind the Urban Sketching

Whenever I visit the UK I always like to take a trip out to Flamborough Head to see the Lighthouse and the chalk tower. The light blue sky doesn’t seemed to have scanned very well and its missing lots of fine detail in the sky.

Reading the information board I can’t believe they spent 100,000 Pounds restoring the chalk tower in 1996 and it still looks like its about to fall down.
