| Photo by Meg Wright Bramble Hill Farm, Amherst MA |
For whatever reason, over the years, we’ve always received fewer spring photos than any other season. Fortunately, Meg Wright captured everything we love about May in this one image – wild bergamot (bee balm) in the foreground, farm fields beyond, and early morning fog blanketing the Valley. Meg took this photo while walking past Bramble Hill Farm in Amherst.
This is the featured photo for May in our 2026 Head in the Clouds Amherst wall calendar. As a reminder, for our final 2026 calendar, the jury selected favorite images from more than a decade of past calendars rather than issuing an open call. This photograph originally appeared in the 2018 calendar.
Does fog qualify as a cloud? While there is some debate about that question, we here at Head in the Clouds Amherst agree that fog is simply a stratus cloud layer that's in direct contact with the land or sea. It's the one time when your head really can be "in the clouds," So let those tiny little water droplets envelop you - and enjoy!
P.S. NOAA agrees!
