Exercise 3 - Aerial or atmospheric perspective

I started with the view from my upstairs front room again but positioned myself the corner of the room so that I had a view down the street.

As well as working on atmospheric perspective I wanted to work again on linear perspective. It's sort of successful but the tones are probably too similar. Maybe colour would be easier?

 This is coloured pencil and graphitint pencils. They're very soft so I had some difficulty establishing sharp lines in the foreground. It's a bit better in real life.....
I tried charcoal for a view down the garden but this really didn't work.

Although it improves slightly if cropped

Or biro and coloured pencil

I think my second attempt was the best
