I can not think of anything better, besides spending time with my family, than to be outside painting on a beautiful sunny day like today. When painting on location you have so much information to decide what to and what not to include in the painting... But it is those details you get to have a choice... that you otherwise might not have from a photo. Please do not get me wrong, working from a photograph has it's advantages as well. However, I believe working outdoors while feeling the elements and smelling the smells, the painting takes on a whole different life of it's own than if you paint from a photo. It comes to life and you gain a greater and deeper appreciation for your chosen painting location. So go out and paint. What are you waiting for. =)
