Juillet Adieu

Cattails by the pond will surely take us into August.

Ahead of the Rain at Lake Waramaug

Another moment by the lake, this time in infrared.

Glorious July

A hillside vista between rainstorms. Under the heat, July offered up lushness.

Night Corn

A day-for-night treatment of this luxurious cornfield (in high sun and infrared).

First Cut

Haying is underway now. Across the road, the farmer on his tractor waved back at me. A fine day for cutting.

Silo in High Grass

The next time I drive by this field, the grass will be cut in the first haying. The texture of the grasses and the action in the sky are part of this photograph’s “moment.” Nothing will be the same again.

Broken

And un-boughed.

After the Rain

A clearing sky, saturated color and a verdant hilltop called for a color photograph this time at the orchard in Bridgewater, where the previous black-and-white infrared photograph was made. Luckily, this idyllic spot was left unscathed by the destructive storm that ripped through town the day before.

Hilltop Orchard

High sun and strong shadow, often a photographer’s downfall, are a perfect fit for this infrared landscape.

Spring Hillside

Luckily the trees were blossoming at the same time the sunlight and sky cooperated for this landscape yesterday. Today the rain is back. Not exactly ideal for forays in infrared.
