What the season gives Quiet Fog Reduced visibility and the usefulness of going slower. What to avoid: Pretending to see clearly in the fog.
What it takes Golden Hour A short window of excellent light. Use it for the thing you like. What to avoid: Spending the best hour on email.
What it asks of you High Sun Peak light and peak exposure. Good for work, hard for rest. What to avoid: Doing the most in the least sustainable month.
