Mad about the Mist
Rainbows are so passé
November, the back end of the hurricane season in Puerto Rico, is the start of our rainy season. It’s not like the monsoons in other tropical parts of the planet. There are days that it rains a lot, but rarely do they last as long as a week, and often, the showers take turns with sweet sunlight. But there is plenty of rain to turn the usual verdant jungle below and around my house even deeper green.
Today, the rains came especially heavy, then stopped. So much moisture in the air brought unusually large and low clouds of mist. It was as if curtains were creeping along the valley offering both a backdrop and new visual excitement to the plants and trees around my home. Here are some views I captured before the curtain was raised.
I love to frame photos, but here there is nothing to frame! The trees on the far hillside that were there earlier have disappeared.
