I thank Angyalimosoly for giving the lovely photograph that I uses as my reference (pixabay.com/en/seriously-think…) a CC0 Public Domain licence.
My wife was on holiday, having taken our camera with her, at the time that I drew this so I knew that I had plenty of time to complete this challenging drawing before she returned and I was able to photograph and upload it here.
