Fishing at Dawn

A continuation of the other day’s thoughts: Flickr users seem to have this thing for highly saturated pics.  Bright, bold colors, strong contrasts.  For most of the year, I’m one of them.  We have three months of brilliant greens, and nine months of drab greys.

And yet, today it’s lightly raining.  In a couple of weeks, the rains will come, but heavier.  August and September are typically our rainiest months, and then we get hit with Autumn – browns and a few yellows.  Then Winter – all grey.  Soon I will be missing colors again…
