This pastel painting was done in Mendon Ponds Park on an unusually warm day in late October. The sunshine through the atmosphere made the distant hills a beautiful blue color and gave a warm cast to everything. It softened the edges on the hazy shadows that crossed the path where I stood. I occasionally had horse-back riders pass by me, as this is one of several riding trails through the park.
