A Little Drizzle Makes For Consistant Lighting…(Updated)

Plein Air Painting at the Little Susitna River near Wasilla, Alaska.

The weather was rather cold and dreary this early September day. Drizzles sputtered on and off over the course of a couple hours but the otherwise inclement weather made for some superbly consistent lighting. Here are a few photos documenting the process.
