Red Rock - Oct 3

Some of the areas are complete and some are still underway. I have to stand back more often as I add each rock/colour. I'm working from a photo that I've changed and trying to stay with the colour and the feel. Its really easy to get lost here. I'm also feeling the constraints of the thread colours available to me.
Most of this has been done in flat cotton quilting thread but now to get more subtle blends I'm having to add in my embroidery thread. It's glossy and I really don't want a lot of shine, particularly as it won't be there across the board.

So here is where I am, along with the early unstitched cartoon.
