Latest Broads Scene; Oulton Broad???

This scene came from a book of Broadland scenes and says it's Oulton Broad, however, I don't recognise this as Oulton Broad myself... and the same book named a picture of Princes St titled St Peters St which I KNOW is incorrect - if anyone recognises this as somewhere else in the Broads please let me know!!!

That said, this is an A5, on a black A4 mount (not scanned) and was painted using iron, stylus (with drawing tip) and cotton bud (have grown to love those as a waxing tool!!! :lol: )

Stunning, Di :art: I hate it when books are unreliable for naming places :( I'm afraid I wouldn't know where this actually is, but then there are so many places it could be ;)

Hi everyone, thanks very much. I must admit, out of all of them, this is my favorite. I love the effects of sunsets, and they're so much easier to do :lol: :D Hopefully i'll find some more i can try :crossed:
