What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?

It was evening, a hot summer day with a light breeze. It was about 90 degrees out originally, but a breeze kicked in as the sun began to set. I was out taking pictures of my friend, Jessica, and we walked by this lake. I looked out onto the lake and saw this shot and couldn't pass it up.
