Dappled Light and Daisies

I have to say that I did not choose this subject because of the daisies, but because of the wonderful dappled light under the trees. It was only after I set myself up to paint that I really noticed the daisies. It was a pleasant change from painting yesterday under the full sun, to painting today standing in the shade.
Even so, I only just made it. Towards the end it got very dark under the trees, and I realised that it had clouded over, and the bright notes of light had gone. Now that I'm home writing this I would not be surprised if we had a pluvial event before evening. Not truly Nelson summer weather. Honestly.
Well, maybe this summer. But it is unusual. Honestly.
