After days of heavy rain, the gray cloud cover begins to lift.
The land remains sodden, sighing heavily.
Moisture rises like smoke signals from the hollows.
I set down my heavy load.
I wait for clear vision.
Nach vielen Regentagen hebt sich langsam die graue Wolkendecke.
Das Land liegt aufgeschwemmt, schwer seufzend.
Feuchtigkeit erhebt sich wie Rauch-Signale von den Tälern.
Ich setzte meine schwere Last ab.
Ich warte auf einen klaren Blick.

The thought of rain is lovely, although I suppose days of it could be gloom-inducing. The photo seems to convey a sense of relief at its ending.

I love how you caught the mists clinging to the hillsides. It’s a tough shot to get. Nice thoughts to go along with it.

Wonderful thoughts and image. I wait for clear vision. Seems like I say that all the time in the hottest time of the year, here. But, it is difficult to get a photo portraying the oppressive heat in March and April.

We are just now in the transition from winter into spring – every warmish day, every flock of robins brings us closer. Can’t even relate (yet) to oppressive heat. Hope you get some relief every once in a while…
