Hilltop at Sunset - upstate New York
Hilltop at Sunset
This postcard features a magical play of light and color on a hilltop at sunset in upstate New York, just south of the Finger Lakes. It had been raining all day. The sky began to clear just as the sun was setting. The foreground begins with a hint of green, then a layer of golden weeds, and then a field of ripening corn ending in a hedgerow of trees. Distant hills in the mist can be seen beyond the field. The partly cloudy sky creates a glorious pattern of pink, gold, yellow, orange, mauve, blue and white.
