Well, this is a sign of serious...

I just watched a news show saying Quebec's smoke is now creating a health/visibility concern far away, including New York.

So I looked West, camera in hand, and see this! It's been somewhat dark - it's not sunset yet - but I didn't realize how dark!
Worse than the "Sahara dust" a few years back (well, less Pinkish) ... I can't even see New Jersey, or a passing boat, clearly through the haze... This is West bank of Manhattan looking West (North/Canada to the right). Usually the other side is crisp, piers, condos, etc.

And usually this would be blue with the beginnings of a golden or orange sunset. Can't even see any sign of the sun. Thick...

How can you capture the essence of #fog in a photograph? I often associate it with dull #greys but when the #Sun's light is diffusing through it, it adds some #colour which attenuates quite smoothly into the familiar gloom. But I do also like the layering effect of the #foreground, #middleground and #background with objects disappearing into the #haze.

Settled #weather is caused by the presence of a #HighPressure region of #air which often stays for days at a time (depending on where you live). This means that the air is quite still and so atmospheric #dust and #pollution from cities stagnates and gets pushed down into low-level layers of the #atmosphere. It causes #haze but also deeper #red #sunsets.

Still waiting for Sprig here...
