Day two hundred and sixty: I found myself in a pastel mood today, and wanting to play with the rich chalky layers that I began experimenting with a couple of weeks ago. Turning to my photographs to find a suitable subject, I expected to choose a colorful sunset or ocean scene. Instead I was drawn to a photo I snapped years ago as a passenger in a car, traveling during a dark, stormy afternoon. The highway was filled with cold rain and fog, which had a remarkable, hazy effect, especially on the lights of cars and trucks. The original photograph had dozens of vehicles, but I decided to simply the scene for sake of time, and only include three.
