The Long Lazy Days of Summer.
Trying to capture the feel of a hot summer's evening, with warm mellow tones as the last rays of the setting sun strike the scene — perhaps near the lavender fields of Provence. Technical: since the sun's not actually setting for a few hours and it's a bit unpredictable, I'm shooting with a hand-held flash unit and an orange gel to simulate the sunset. Balancing that with natural daylight and a couple of different takes composited together to get the light 'just right'. Coming next week — Lughnasah / Lammas and the first harvest of summer.
