Everything is coming along really well. All the sheets of filmed have been scanned and processed. I now have a edit which I'm still finalising. Currently I'm spending allot of time researching and writing.
During this time I come across some really beautiful painting during the "little ice age" in Europe. This was a period of global cooling which happened after the mediveal warm period - about 1350 to 1859. Here is a selection of my favorite paintings.
