Hazy Days of Summer

Naugatuck, Connecticut

This shot from a bridge over the Naugatuck River was shot a week ago, but it's the kind of weather we've been having for a while. Temperatures in the high 80s or low 90s, high humidity, rain and some storms. Even when the sky is "clear" it's white and distances are veiled in haze. The dehumidifier in my computer/printers/scanner room is working overtime.

That hazy sky can make for some lovely light, however. It was like a giant softbox delicately lighting this meadow at Steep Rock Reservation this afternoon. Do click on one of the pictures to see the larger, isolated view which will look better than the frontpage  on most devices.
