That famous Hamptons light

As I continue to play around with Instagram and my amateur photography I've gotten new appreciation for that phenomenon known as "that Hamptons light". As an art director for years, working with some famous photographers and cinematographers, I'd always heard about how the light out here is different, special, unique. The lore is that because you have the light bouncing off the Atlantic AND Long Island Sound, it mixes in the ether and lands perfectly on the South Fork in all its magical quality splendor. But don't take my word for it. Many celebrated artists have sung it's praises. There was an article about it last year in the NYTimes, you can read it here.
This all came to mind when I snapped this shot on my kitchen island this morning...the light was clean, pure, so very Hamptons.
