Flowering Manuka

Another drizzly afternoon, but I came across this Manuka in bloom in our garden. It was nice to find some shelter near the house, looking down the valley, with a lovely view of the distant hills coming and going in the misty rain. The Manuka was delightful, and a real bonus, but quite a challenge to paint. Very soft and feathery against the sky.
