Travel
The noise of moving ice is quite a surprise. Also the intensity of colour as the temperature drops. Birds land on the ice to travel with the tide. It can be very difficult to sketch in these conditions. As the boat moves between the flows the noise on aluminium is deafening and the ice very sculptural.
Hot climates also means one has to be focused and crayons can get very soft and occasionally pecked by peacocks.
