    Default scenic and a question

    I really need to work with Xara much more than I have been to get back into it.
    I tried to create a somewhat foggy day and a view from the distance.
    try as I may, I couldn't figure out what, if any, foreground would work. So, the question is, does this stand alone or in your opinion does it need a foreground, and if so, what. Eager to hear from you.

    Tim, tricky.
    At present, the viewer seems to be in the lake. You would expect ripples from them or a boat.
    If there are none, there has to be a jetty.

    My best punt is to try and show the shallows:

    Apologies for messing up a nice scene.

    Or have a few stylized cat tails in the foreground.
