Another using the Auryn Ink app on my iPad -

tree at Longshaw Estate 3 miles from home in the middle of the Peak Park

On a very shaky train back from Scotland last Thursday. Half way between Glasgow and Lockerbie in the Lowther Hills near Moffat, I looked at the scene, closed my eyes to fix it, opened my iPad (and eyes) and painted this in my Auryn Ink app.

Autumn leaves in Dundee last Wednesday - using the Auryn app on my iPad - I like the watercolour effect.

Manchester Airport

Start of our American Journey Monday morning 3 August. Here's where my iPad comes into it's own. That's our Delta 767 that took us safely to Atlanta.

Final sketches

The final sketches of our Colorado Trip. One at 30 seconds, one at 10 seconds. Lights out! Goodbye America, hello Britain.

Philadelphia Airport

10 minute sketch before the call to board

Northern Plains USA

There were only 4 types of scenery in the 3 hour flight over Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois and Indiana before we hit clouds at Fort Wayne (which I identified from my photo and a satellite image on Google maps). In an hour we were at Philly Airport.

Denver Airport

Sad farewells and on the way back to the UK

Another nice night out and nice meal at The Olive Branch. Downtown was buzzing.... nice

Corn Dollies outside Joanne's @ Colorado Springs. This is when an iPad comes in really useful when your wife and daughter enter their favourite wool shop.

Garden of the Gods - Colorado Springs

Red rock slabs 300 ft high - awesome. Quick sketch on my iPad followed by a slightly slower one with pen and watercolour. I'd been looking forward to doing this one since our daughter moved to the Springs 2 years ago.

Colorado Springs - Johnny Carino's

Staff problems that night backstage but the food (and company) was good.

Breckenridge, Colorado

9500 feet above sea-level - it got really cold when the sun set - but it was really good to be able to eat outside in the middle of September.

Rock Bottom - Colorado Springs

Another night out in Colorado Springs - Rock Bottom - another iPad sketchette. Don't know who were playing baseball.

Joe's Crab Shack

Joe' Crab Shack Colorado Springs - from outside Stabucks/Barnes & Noble - waiting for our daughter to finish her voluntary work helping a youngster to improve her reading skills. iPad again.

Ruxton Canyon, Manitou Springs

Liked the way the modernish house hung over Ruxton Canyon between Manitou Springs and the Cog Railway up to Pikes Peak - out came my iPad and 2 minutes later.......... the attached:

Arharn's Thai Restaurant

Tasty food at Arharn's Thai restaurant in Colorado Springs with my iPad on my lap instead of the pudding!

Shed in "prairie" (flat grassland) between Denver and Colorado Springs near Castlewood Canyon.
