I was driving through the Portage County (Ohio) countryside this afternoon enjoying the late-autumn scenery. The muted tones of black and brown remind me of the art of watercolorists as I gaze at woodlands and fields. The sun broke through nondescript clouds during the day but, as the afternoon progressed, heavier, more dramatic clouds rapidly moved in; their ragged edges surrounding and tearing at the blue openings to a deeper sky. Some of that change in the weather took place as I watched and photographed from the side of a country road and the final stages took place as I drove westward on the Ohio Turnpike at 70 MPH — camera protruding from an open window!
