Perfect summer evening at the lake. The ground hugging green plants that, when seen from a distance, slightly resemble grass are throwing out thousands of tiny yellow flowers. New Britain Reservoir, Southington, Connecticut. August 3, 2020, 6:52 PM.

Summer evening beside a large lake. A blue sky, still visible on the right side, is becoming filled with streaky white high clouds with some small dark and dramatic clouds below. The unseen sun is getting low in the sky, adding a golden color to the streaky clouds along the horizon. Below that, a low wooded ridge rises above the far shore of the lake. The near shore of the lake and a very low, narrow peninsula about 100 feet out create a small cove in front of us. There are a few small ripples on the surface of the lake, which reflects the sky and far shore. Both lake shores and the peninsula are covered with a carpet of ground hugging plants with very small green leaves that resembles grass from a distance once you are far away enough to not be able to pick out the leaves. Thousands of tiny yellow flowers are sprouting from that ground cover. A few gray boulders and small flowering shrubs also poke through in spots.
