Late Afternoon at Macricostas Preserve

•

Late in the afternoon at the end of a lush summer day, I'm looking down a trail at the Macricostas Preserve in Washington Connecticut. The scene appears like a stage setting.

Blue light from threatening rain clouds above and gold light from the low angled sun, saturate this field of green-jewel tones.

I am standing in shadows, as if in the wings offstage, waiting to make my appearance, preparing to walk down that trail, through those lights.
