Winter Nocturne // Grafton Lakes State Park
A cold sunrise over the 19th-century ruins of a brick and stone outbuilding along a former Erie Canal alignment in Waterford. Buildings like this once served the locks, towpaths, and work yards that kept the canal moving through the upper Hudson corridor.

The sky is beginning to feel winter clear. Andromeda and the North America Nebula were bright tonight, set against that cold, steady clarity that comes with the first hints of the season.
