Evening on The Mountain

My parents' home in Carmel, New York is always a fun place to play around and take some different kinds of photos when we visit. There's lots of nature and wildlife, moments with the pups, more (sometimes) willing subjects in my Mom and Dad, and it's always fun just walking around and looking at things a bit more closely and differently. 

We last visited in late July this summer and it rained all. weekend. long. One night, after a pig out at Cathryn's Tuscan Grill in Cold Spring (and a fair bit of wine), I started to play with the outside lights around the house and dark, raininess going on. This is one of my favorites. My dad was just sitting introspectively at a table next to one of our picture windows and it just seemed moody and cool to me.
