Shelley Beach Pines. Caloundra. Qld

I was looking for something a bit different when i went out to paint this morning. As i was walking around i spotted the beautiful morning light on these Norfolk pines,there was my subject. I loved how the pines casted a lovely shadow in the leaf canopy and on the ground. Also the backdrop of Shelley Beach headlandland and water. This would look great in any room with a lovely frame to set it off. This was painted in oils on a canvas board.
