Here's the view of the inner harbor, looking south from the West pier of Dun Laoghaire, Ireland.
My goal was to create the sparkles of sunlight by dragging a brush across the paper, leaving little bits of pure white showing through, plus I added a few dots from a gel pen.
It's almost impossible to get the random quality and the brightness of sparkles if you try to do it with white gouache.
