"So bleak. We had a few tornadoes come by this way over the weekend, and the sky looked happier than that."

The cloud conditions at sunrise are crucial to my sunrise photography, but they can give a false impression of what will happen later in the day. We had a lovely hike in Blue Mound State Park in the early afternoon, and there was a nice — not excessive — infusion of sunlight. 

Meade photographed me climbing the winding trail toward the end of a 4-mile hike:


Notice the slashes of sunlight:
