It was a "late start" painting day last week when we headed to the Lagoon. Since I parked on the far side and hiked in with easel and backpack in tow it was close to 11 before I got started. The sun was straight up, blaring a blue sky with lots of green and not much pink and red to be found.I would like to go back and paint this scene a little earlier in the morning or late afternoon to catch some warm tones.
