I had almost forgotten how much I actually love Nasmith's artwork. It's hard to pick a favourite, but Last Sight of Hobbiton is a good candidate for it:

Well, Malick, you might very well owe me some cash soon - looked up the Ted Nasmith Art Shop page on facebook, and I'm already considering buying one or two

I just love his night-time paintings, they remind me of home and night patrols on exercises

I found I have to use chrome to see them: they are from google content. You may have to have a gmail account or something, with a cookie on your computer.

yeah, though I don't like the feel of chrome it generally plays well with anything, so it should always be installed as a backup.
