It’s suddenly mid-December, a fact heralded by a remarkable run of grey days. The world is white snow and dark skies and Christmas lights all around… cosy and quaint, but not terribly inspiring with the camera. And so in honor of Vermont’s grey-ness, here are a few images from my favorite grey-toned photography session.

Anglers Steven Bonney and Justin Waters braved a foggy and drizzly Puget Sound morning for a wading session, and I tagged along with the camera. We saw seals, a host of seabirds, and one very talkative old couple out walking their dog.

No fish.

Sometimes the days are like that, but despite the fog and the cold and the lack of aquatic species, it was a memorable morning. Light—or the lack thereof—determines the quality of the day.

Just goes to show, sometimes a lack of color is a good thing. 

(As I re-read what I’ve just written, I grinned at the UK spelling of several words. Sorry. I’ve been writing a UK fly-fishing catalog and seem to be in the mode.)

At any rate, enjoy. Hope it’s blue skies and warm sunshine wherever you are.
