Caption: I’m rewinding to early August with this story, and a late walk at Yellowcraig. It’s funny sharing this almost a month later as the evening light has already changed so much in the last few weeks as the days creep shorter. So with this story, I want to hold onto the glow of this late summer light and the way the sky shifted from blue to orange, and all the gentle hues in between.
