Daisies near Mt. Rainier National Park. Photo © Jim Doty Jr.
My plan was to shoot this field of daisies with Mt. Rainier in the background but the weather was not cooperating. Mt. Rainier is sitting above the tree line but it is obscured by clouds. When mother nature doesn’t provide what I planned on shooting, I try and work with what mother nature provides.
Colors can be quite nice and saturated on a rainy day. I set up in the meadow and waited. The clouds thinned enough to allow some diffused sunlight to brighten the daisies. I had a few minutes to shoot and the nice light was gone.
