This is most unusual.
I don’t recall ever having a summer like this, where it doesn’t get hot and it never stops raining. I can count the sunny days thus far on one hand.
But still, it’s visually interesting, with the brief periods between rains being shrouded in fog as the water wends its way skyward:
That’s the Chickley river between showers.
Right near there a field of sunflowers danced in the rain while wishing for a bit more heat:
…and minutes later, the rain stopped and the fog lifted from the fields:
Yes, it’s an unusual summer, but not an ugly one. At this point I feel like a quitter, setting my sights on autumn rather than delving deeply into the present. But I’ve taken a butt-load of foggy landscape shots this year, and I’m ready to move on.
it has had it’s moments of beauty but all in all-phooey!
So, you’re getting Blowing Rock, NC’s weather, are you?
So gorgeous!
