Smoked Summer Air
August was a dry month. So much so that the provincial government initiated a "woods ban", making it illegal to enter the woods. While it was eventually lifted in some counties towards the end of the month, most of the photo shoots were planned around beaches. It's a good thing that it's shorebird season.
