ReplyDeleteThe haze gives a dreamy, softening effect to the photo. On the other hand, it reminds me of Bonny and Clyde.
ReplyDeleteLove that light!

Guess the dog days are over. ;o)
Hooray, time to get your spinning wheel out to make some yak's yarn?
Nice atmosphere. If I were still living in the East Coast, I'd be looking forward to September.
ReplyDeleteExcellent photo, Doug! I love to be single on a road, in my car, in a morning like this.
ReplyDeleteHeat haze and not winter's fog, yet still makes a great photo.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful and full of that humid southern mood ... i don't even want to think of the temperatures... but one day i will visit the south in summer to experience all this myself, and i trust you will take me to this place !!!
ReplyDeleteStanding loud claps. You captured this moment perfectly. Absolutely wonderful. Like a scene in a movie.
ReplyDeleteI returned from my short vacation, I was curious to see your new at this, I find a spectacular atmosphere with an extraordinary light, nice work Doug
ReplyDeletei like the mood caused by the lighting in this scene.. nice work! :)
